Maniesh Paul who hosted the News18 Showsha Reel Awards on February 25, was honoured with the Best Actor In A Comic Role for his work in JugJugg Jeeyo. Time and again, the actor has been appreciated for his on screen presence and comic timing, for which he also enjoys a massive fan following.
On receiving the award, Maniesh said, “Well honestly, I wasn’t expecting this, main peeche baithke mera script rehearse kar raha tha. Honestly, this validation feels so so good. A big thank you to Karan Johar sir, Raj Mehta, Apoorva Mehta… it’s because of them I bagged this film. I am so happy to work with Anil Kapoor Sir. You’ve been a legend…
“When I get awards, I become that Maniesh Paul from Malviya Nagar again, when I used to perform on stage in school and college and teachers said that this guy is going to go a long way… I have only have one advice to aspiring actors and performers – that in this industry, people often try to fit you in a box, make sure that you never let your dreams and aspirations to be confided in a box. I also want to thank all those people who rejected me, which gave me the push to try harder."
Later, Maniesh shared a bundle of pictures from the award ceremony and wrote, “And it happened again!!! Won the BEST ACTOR IN A COMIC ROLE FOR JUG JUGG JEEYO last nite at the @news18 @showsha_ awards… Cant thank you all enough!!
