Manish Goyal is jobless

The out-of-work actor walks out of yet another show, director Sunjoy Wadhwa is furious

Unemployed: Manish Goyal

Manish Goyal is going a through a very lean patch in his career. Goyal's career looked promising after Nach Baliye last year. However, he became so selective after it that he chose to take a sabbatical instead of doing regular television shows. It's been one year and the actor hasn't landed a single role.

At such a time, when Sunjoy Wadhwa's Paraya Dhan could resurrect Manish's career, rumour has it that the actor has walked out of it, much to the annoyance of the producer. "On Thursday evening before his pack-up, Manish informed the executive producer of the show that he would not be coming for the shoot from the next day onwards," says Wadhwa. Apparently the reason for their tussle is the billing in the show. "To begin with Manish didn't want to wait for a couple of hours while the others finished their shots. He wanted his shots taken first. There are 18 characters in the show, and I can only shoot with them one at a time. He was the highest paid actor in the show and I don't see why he should complain if we ask him to wait. He is getting his money, isn't he?" The producer says that dealing with the high-handed behaviour of actors is extremely difficult. "As a producer I do understand actors' problems but sometimes actors trouble us a lot. Manish's starry tantrums cost me a lot of money. I'll have to now look for a replacement. His ouster has also disrupted the schedule of my show," Sunjoy snaps.

While Sunjoy is busy looking for a replacement, the actor is busy looking for a show that will change his fortune. Manish says, "Since, Sunjoy has accepted the fact that he made me wait for hours on the sets, I guess that explains everything," says Manish who admits never wanting to play a small role in the show. "First, they promised me that mine would be a well fleshed out character. Since it was a cameo they said that I'd be required to shoot for 10 days a month. But I realised that I wasn't shooting more than 4 or 5 days a month. It's a character that they will never develop. All this while, they have been taking me for granted. I've been waiting for my juniors for hours on the sets. But Thursday was the final nail in the coffin." Apparently, for a ten-minute scene Manish was made to wait for 7 hours. He says, "They treated me really badly. I've worked hard to reach here and I certainly don't deserve to be treated like dirt. I want money to run my house but you can't turn around and say that 'you're getting paid. So you better wait.' I want to make money by working and not twiddling my thumbs." Manish feels that his decision to quit the show was a wise one. "I'm sure everything happens for the best," he says.
