Let's make this birthday one to remember.

56 years old (Born on April 23, 1969)

Happy Birthday to the incredible Manoj Bajpayee—the man who effortlessly made us root for a gangster in "Gangs of Wasseypur" and cheer passionately for an intelligence officer in "The Family Man." Your versatility is unmatched, your dialogues iconic ("Keh ke lenge!"), and let's be honest—no one can deliver intense lines with such comic timing quite like you.

From winning hearts as Srikant Tiwari navigating family drama alongside national security threats, you've proven that spies too have grocery lists. May this birthday bring more thrilling scripts, fewer undercover missions at home (we know Suchi won't approve), and endless applause from fans worldwide. Keep shining bright!
