The actor visited Bharat Bhawan in Bhopal to reminisce about his old theatre days

It was a deja vu moment for Manoj Bajpayee as he visited Bharat Bhawan in Bhopal. He was recently in the city of lakes for the shoot of a film and had the Sunday off to do as he pleased.

Manoj apparently used to visit the theatre very often when he was a stage actor. A source says, `Manoj performed at the Bharat Bhavan 15 years ago. Whenever he is in Bhopal, he makes it a point to go there for old times' sake. `

The actor states, `It was a nostalgic trip. On my visit there, I also met some artistes. I sat around in the canteen taking in the scenes. Nothing much has changed here. My last play there was called Holi. `

The actor also indulged in some gastronomic affair in the city. The source says, `He also asked his chef to prepare biryani. He was in Bhopal for a small schedule and returned to Mumbai on Monday. ` The actor also tweeted a picture of him sitting in the Bharat Bhawan canteen.
