Manoj Sood was born in Mombassa, Kenya but grew up in Western Canada. Manoj entered the entertainment world in 1994 and has been working steadily for the past 12 years. Manoj, much to his surprise, landed a supporting role in an American MOW after his very first audition. Up until then his only acting experience had been from his acting classes. Manoj walked onto his first day of shooting as green as a person of color can be. When the camera operator said, "speed" Manoj thought he was saying "speak" so he jumped right into saying his lines. The director then gave a very nervous Manoj his first on-set note: "Manoj you have to wait for the word 'action' before you say your lines".Since that day Manoj has appeared in more than 40 Television and Feature Film productions. He has appeared on popular Television shows like "Da Vinci's Inquest", "The Dead Zone", "Romeo!" and "Dead Like Me" as well as numerous others. Manoj has also acted in popular films such as Meltdown (2004) (TV) and Rat Race (2001).Manoj has just finished filming season 2 of the highly popular CBC TV series called "Little Mosque on the Prairie" (2007), which airs Wednesday evenings at 8:00 PM on CBC.Manoj has been a passionate fly fisherman and amateur astronomer since he was a child so when he's not acting you will find him fly-fishing with his son or gazing into the universe with his Telescope.
