Manoj is a controversial figure in the world of writing. Earlier, he drew the ire of audience over the writing of the Prabhas-starrer ‘Adipurush’ which was universally panned. He went on to tender an apology as he accepted his mistake of infusing certain mistakes in the film’s writing.

Prior to that, Manoj had stirred a pot when his song ‘Teri Mitti’ from the Akshay Kumar-starrer ‘Kesari’ failed to get the award for Best Lyrics and lost to ‘Apna Time Aayega’ from the Zoya Akhtar directorial ‘Gully Boy’ at an award function.
