Bijou Thaangjam said that he didn't have a great experience auditioning with Shanoo Sharma. Mary Kom actor talks about audition experience with Shanoo Sharma Bijou Thaangjam shared that he was asked to perform a scene in front of a Mumbai café. "@talwarisha I hear you! My very first film audition was with her, for Byomkesh Bakshy. I wasn't fluent in Hindi, not very confident, but hopeful to give it my best. And just like your experience, I was asked to perform a scene right in front of a café, the one that used to be called Bru World, Yari Road."

"I couldn't understand why a senior casting director needed to put a young girl through this ... it's only fair that an actor is given a good casting office space to be able to audition in ... or if you want to do a real location, then hire a spot, pay for it and audition!... I do remember saying I can't do it, and of course I never got the role, but at least I didn't give in to the weird ask and surely didn't cry at a restaurant for a role!'
