Rajpal Yadav said he had once "crossed the line" by asking Ram Gopal Varma for a lead role in front of Ajay Devgn, Manisha Koirala and others. "After this statement, everybody went quiet...Sometime later, Manisha said, 'I like his confidence,'" Rajpal told Rajshri Unplugged. He added that he felt he would be fired from the film 'Company' due to this.
