Manoj Bajpai is in a quandary. Saddled with the tag of an intense and serious actor, he is rarely offered a chance to display his flair for light roles. Even when such a film does come along, it either has a boring script or is an overcrowded multistarrer. Manoj isn`t interested in either.

The question that confronts him is: should he grab any offer that he gets or should he bide his time for the likes of Shyam Benegal and Rakesh Mehra to complete their next scripts? Contemporaries like Ashutosh Rana, Ashish Vidyarthia dn Mukesh Tiwari compromise and accept roles in multistarrers.

His girlfriend of three years, Neha, too, is looking for other avenues to keep herself busy. But Manoj, being the lone breadwinner of his huge family and also a "great moral support" to Neha, doesn`t know what to do. But the gifted actor that he is, we are sure of his scaling great heights some day. What say you, Ashutosh Rana!
