Among
many
B-town
celebrities
who
got
infected
with
COVID-19,
actor
Manoj
Bajpayee
was
also
one.
The
actor
battled
against
the
deadly
virus
and
has
finally
recovered
from
it.
Speaking
about
recovering
from
COVID-19,
Manoj
Bajpayee
said
that
the
journey
is
not
easy,
has
been
rather
painful.
In
an
interview
with
Hindustan
Times,
the
Sonchiriya
actor
said
that
he
was
in
the
middle
of
a
shoot
for
Dispatch
directed
by
Kanu
Behl,
when
a
few
of
his
team
members
showed
symptoms
of
COVID-19.
"It's
been
a
tough
ride.
I
got
the
infection
home,
I
and
my
wife
were
down
with
all
the
symptoms,
which
were
quite
pronounced
while
protecting
our
10-year-old
daughter.
Our
condition
was
worsening,
I
must
say
that
we
are
recovering
well," added
Bajpayee.
When
asked
how
he
spent
time
during
his
quarantine
period,
he
said
that
he
watched
a
few
shows
and
films,
as
he
feels
that's
the
life
of
an
actor.
Speaking
about
how
his
daughter
dealt
with
the
deadly
virus,
Bajpayee
said,
"Our
daughter
needs
a
lot
of
time.
Mostly
all
of
us
were
in
separate
rooms,
communicating
from
a
distance.
Now
she
wants
a
lot
of
playtimes,
wants
us
to
sit
next
to
her
while
she
does
homework,
during
online
classes.
We
are
at
a
distance
definitely.
It
has
been
a
mixed
bag."
With
respect
to
work,
Manoj
was
last
seen
in
ZEE5
Original
film
Silence...
Can
You
Hear
It?
alongside
Arjun
Mathur
and
Prachi
Desai.
He
will
next
be
seen
in

which
also

Samantha
