Popular TV show presenter Maniesh Paul is going to make a comeback on big screen with the soon to released family drama 'Jugjugg Jeeyo'. The film has an all star cast including Varun Dhawan, Kiara Advani, Anil Kapoor and NeetuKapoor among others and it is one of the most anticipated projects of Bollywood. In a recent interview, Maniesh Paul talked about why he was away from Bollywood for last few years.

The actor told PTI, "I love acting, but I wasn't getting the right projects until 'Jugjugg Jeeyo' happened. I didn't want to do films for the sake of it. That's why I took it easy after 2016. I wanted to wait and do a film when it clicks. There was never a temptation to do a film just to keep the ball rolling."

He added, "I understood after a point that what I want isn't happening, so I went with the flow. It had to happen at the right time, and it did with 'Jugjugg Jeeyo'."

Sharing how he prefers quality over quantity when it comes to work, Maniesh stated, "You can't do anything subpar and expect people to laud you, they won't. You have to choose the right projects and ensure you never take your work for granted. I have hosted countless award nights, reality shows and done a few films also, but have never taken a single day for granted."
