He added that “Some critics wrote ‘He’s good but he doesn’t fit the role, he’s good but he doesn’t look like a prince.’ I thought these people are so liberal and evolved that they do not realise they are such big racists. They were too racist,”
The ‘Bhaiyaa Ji actor’also shared “I have many newspaper cuttings (reviews) where people have been very brutal, lethal and racist.” Manoj also shared that he was even called a ‘Porn Star’ by many of his fans during the release of his film ‘Fareb’. The film features Shilpa Shetty and Shamita Shetty. he further says “The film wasn’t well made and it failed, it happens sometimes. Somebody wrote, ‘Now Bhikhu Matre of Satya has become a porn star.’ That hurt me, it really offended me. No reviewer has the right to go that dirty. You can talk about my film, how it is made. How does that make me a porn star? There is nothing I did in that film to suggest that,”
