On Friday, Manoj Bajpayee turned 52. It was a working birthday as he is shooting for Ram Reddy’s film in Uttarakhand. Last year, he had barely begun shooting for the project when the national lockdown was announced. The actor was in no mood to celebrate his big day. 

"So many people suffering, so many friends, family members, acquaintances are infected. Getting calls and messages from known and unknown for desperate help. Never felt so helpless. Praying hard for this suffering of the people to end and this time to pass soon!! Please stay indoors!," wrote Manoj on Twitter.
