Sanjay made me act - Mahesh Manjrekar

actor Mahesh Manjrekar has recently admitted that it was filmmaker, buddy Sanjay Gupta who roped Manjrekar into acting. Manjrekar started his acting career through Sanjay Gupta's multi-starrer film 'Kaante' that became a smash hit and later Mahesh did more of Gupta's films that include 'Plan', 'Musafir' and 'Zinda'.
