Maniesh even revealed that he was not getting substantial roles lately, thus he didn't star in a film 2016's comedy. "Honestly saying, I was not getting the offers I wanted. I was offered roles, but they were not exciting. People wanted to make films (with me), but I don't know them. And I didn't want to do a mindless flick. So, I waited for the right opportunity, and meanwhile, I was enjoying hosting shows." After JugJugg Jeeyo, Maniesh Paul will next be seen in a web series, and it is currently under production.
