Manoj
Bajpayee
recently
revealed
that
he
envied
actors
like
Nawazuddin
Siddiqui,
Pankaj
Tripathi,
Jaideep
Ahlawat
and
Rajkummar
Rao.
Meanwhile,
Pankaj
Tripathi
is
of
the
opinion
that
Manoja
Bajpayee
is
the
reason
actors
like
him
got
a
chance
in
the
industry.
Now
The
Family
Man
star
had
explained
his
statement
saying
that
he
isn't
jealous
of
any
actor
in
the
world
but
added
that
time
is
on
their
side.
Manoj
Bjapayee
told
spotboye.com,
"I
didn't
mean
I
envied
them
for
their
talent.
Of
course,
they
are
all
talented
and
it
is
my
good
fortune
that
they
all
respect
me
so
much.
I
think
they
are
fantastic
actors.
But
I
am
not
jealous
of
any
actor
in
the
world.
Because
I
am
happy
with
what
I
have,
and
I
want
to
maximize
my
potential
before
I
get
older."
He
further
added
that
he
does
not
want
to
overstay
his
welcome
and
do
great
work
before
his
age
catches
up
with
him.
He
told
the
portal
that
others
experienced
a
similar
kind
of
stardom
at
an
earlier
age,
"They
have
time
on
their
side.
Success
and
a
kind
of
stardom
has
come
early
to
them
whereas
I
am
now
in
my
50s.
I've
some
years
to
go.
But
I
don't
want
to
overstay
my
welcome.
Before
the
audience
gets
bored
of
me
I
want
to
do
good
work."
Calling
his
current
streak
of
success,
his
best
years,
Manoj
said
he
wants
to
retire
before
"the
audience
gets
tired
of
me
and
I
get
tired
of
facing
the
camera."
"I
want
to
retire
and
do
the
things
I
couldn't
because
of
my
jampacked
schedules,
travel
to
places
I
haven't
seen,
spend
time
with
my
family,
watch
the
films
that
I've
been
lining
up
for
years.
Yes,
there
is
life
beyond
cinema
for
me.
But
later," he
added.
Manoj
Bajpayee
was
last
seen
in
Dial
100
alongside
Neena
Gupta
and
Sakshi
Tanwar.
He
will
be
returning
to
play
Srikant
Tiwari
in
season
three
of

Family
Man.
