The session started with them addressing the “less noise” round their upcoming black comedy crime thriller which is able to stream on Netflix from eleventh January, 2024. “We are offering something so new and bizarre that we didn’t want any word to go out and take a chance with the content itself. It will be a surprise gift for everyone. If you start talking about it earlier, something goes out and this series is about protecting that something,” mentioned Manoj, including, “This is something that I have never seen or done, it is so unique.

It is being explored more because of the digital platforms,” added the 54-year-old.
In response to a fan query about Manoj’s health routine and life-style, Konkona took over the reply and replied, “He is an inspiration.
