Bollywood actor Manoj Bajpayee reveals he took lessons from a 'sunar' to make his role of a goldsmith in "Dus Tola" look
as realistic as possible.
"I did take lessons from a professional sunar to understand the nuances of jewellery-making to enact it convincingly on
screen, " said Manoj.
"But I cannot make jewellery independently. It is a different art. However, I do understand it quite a bit now and know how
much of effort and labour goes into handmade pieces.
"When I was young, I used to sit at the jewellery shop of one of my closest friend. He would allow me to do small things
and attend customers too. And now in this film, I am actually playing a goldsmith, " he added.
