In his reply, Manoj Bajpayee said, “When there's a story and there's a script, if it moves you emotionally, if it shakes up your conscience, and if there is an opportunity for you to just attach yourself with this project, and be part of a great end up. For me, I saw all of these opportunities in this story (Bandaa). A story that is important to be told. A story that concerns the safety and security of all the minor children.”
