The Family Man actor Manoj Bajpayee has given yet another stellar performance. This time, speaking from his heart, Bajpayee’s two-minute thought-provoking video appeal about communal harmony, has been widely seen, commented upon, and has gone viral.


The concept of this video and poetry is of filmmaker Malap Zaveri. This video of the Family Man is being liked a lot on social media. In this video he says that "the Gods were talking to each other, meeting at the crossroads between the temple and the mosque."

 

In this 2-minute video, Manoj is seen trying to bridge the growing divide in the country. At a time when reports of sectarian incidents have been received across the country from states like Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, and the national capital New Delhi.


It was first released in May 2020, during the peak of the first wave of the Coronavirus pandemic.

 

This poem became very popular among young people. According to Xavier, the video has re-emerged due and it’s being immensely liked due to some "unfortunate incidents" and that is why he has shared it on his Twitter handle.

The filmmaker said, "There have been some unfortunate incidents recently where two communities have clashed and this has made the video relevant."


"And people came out to say that no community wants enmity or discord between each other. Hindus and Muslims live in peace and this video tries to convey the same message," Xavier said.
Xavier is best known for his commercials, such as "Satyamev Jayatae". Xavier first shared the video in May 2020, when the country was under lockdown due to the coronavirus.
