Years after they played son and father in 'Gangs of Wasseypur', Manoj Bajpayee and Jaideep Ahlawat reunite in "The Family Man 3', where they are enemies. And the two can't stop praising each other.

Ahlawat, 45, has deep respect for Bajpayee. The 56-year-old veteran responds by saying he is amazed by the 'Paatal Lok' star's talent.

"I saw 'Paatal Lok' and I can talk about every scene. I've talked with him in detail about it. I like Jaideep's work a lot, especially in 'Paatal Lok, that's why I talk about 'Paatal Lok' again and again. He has done such a good job," Bajpayee told PTI in an interview along with Ahlawat and the rest of the "The Family Man 3' team.

Ahlawat, in turn, said he has seen almost all of Bajpayee's films. "There is a lot of great work that he has done. If you look at his every performance, then that in itself will become a master class for many actors, I'm saying this very genuinely."

The two actors first met on the sets of 'Chittagong' before they went on to work in 'Wasseypur, a two-part revenge saga by Anurag Kashyap. The two stars recall with amusement an event for Bajpayee's film 'Jugnuma' in which Kashyap, Ahlawat and co-actor Vijay Varma touched Bajpayee's feet. The moment quickly became viral on social media.
