MANOJ’S RETIREMENT PLANS
Speaking to Curly Tales, the actor said he doesn’t want to live in a mansion in Mumbai, but instead hopes to move to the mountains after retirement.
When asked where does he want to live ultimately, he said, “Mountains, ek choti si jagah kahi pe li hai. Ek chota sa ghar banau. Koi mansion nahi. Main apna old age yaha nahi guzarna chahunga” (I want to move to the mountains. I have already taken a place somewhere. I want to make a small house somewhere, no mansion for me. I don’t want to spend my old age here). It (Mumbai) will be a city for my daughter, not me.”
