Patna, July 11: I have covered only a small distance in the field of acting and I have miles to go to reach my destination, this is how Manoj Bajpai rated himself as an actor here today. "Though I have managed to get a foothold in the Bollywood, I have still miles to go to carve my name in the field of art and cinema", Bajpai told reporters at an interactive session here. "I rate Naserudeen Shah and Om Puri as among five best actors in the world", the Bollywood hero said describing them as his ideals in the field of acting. Bajpai, born in a small village in west Champaran in Bihar, suggested the state government open a film industry in Bihar so that talented artistes need not move out to Mumbai. He said he would love to act in a Bhojpuri film provided somebody comes with a good script.
