I was asked to play dumb Nepali housekeeper in 'Kapoor & Sons': Manipuri actor Bijou
Manipuri actor Bijou Thaangjam, who recently opened up on facing discrimination by makers of 'Jigra', revealed he was asked to play a "derogatory" and "stereotypical" character in 'Kapoor & Sons'. "The role...was...of a Nepali guy who takes care of Alia Bhatt's house...They make fun of him for being a little dumb," he stated. "I got offended...and refused it," Bijou added.
