Learning the art of being in demand from Ajay Devgan!


- 'If you want to explain something to today's youngsters, use as few words as possible. There is absolutely no need to give a long speech. The same thing applies to films too.'

Ajay Devgn's 'Bhola' film may not have been a hit at the box office, but one thing is certain: Ajay has maintained his stronghold against Khan-Kapoor-Kumars in Bollywood amid the rollercoaster ride of success and failure. There are not few film pundits who believe that he can make more impressive choices as a director than an actor. Ajay's films are coming one after another. His film 'Maidan' will come in the near future. This is a sports drama. The decade from 1952 to 1962 is called the golden age of Indian football. Ajay played the role of a real coach of the Indian football team named Syed Abdul Rehman in the film.

The pre-production of Rohit Shetty's 'Singham Again' has already started. This is the third bead of the Singham series. If all goes well, apart from Ajay Devgn, the film will also star several other stars - Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh and Vicky Kaushal in Latka! Ajay Devgan also stars in the Hindi remake of the supernatural Gujarati film 'Vash'. Ajay's eyes are so powerful that it is certain that he will thrive in the lead role with Hitenkumar. Apart from this, Ajay's Aur Ek film (Director Vishal Chaudhary) titled 'Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha' will be released sooner or later.

If Ajay Devgan is to be identified in just four words, he can be called 'new age old actor'. Being in demand for three decades in the film world is no small feat. The biggest reason for this is Ajay's smart strategy of keeping pace with the times. Ajay keeps upgrading his ideas, way of working, his whole personality with the changing times. He likes to keep up with the latest technology - be it filmmaking technology or mobile technology for personal use.

Ajay says, 'I try not only to know from my daughter Neesa and son Yug what the youngsters of today like and don't like, but rather I keep trying to understand the mindset, likes and dislikes of many other teenagers and young adults around me. . With the changing times, there is a change in the mentality and emotions of the people. So we have to change the way we express our feelings. If you want to explain something to today's youngsters, use as few words as possible. The saying 'Samajnewale ko ishara kafi hai' applies perfectly here. There is absolutely no need to give a long speech. The same applies to movies. There is no need to spout ten-twenty sentence dialogues to convey emotion in a scene. Gone are the days of long dialogues. Now is the time for small yet effective dialogues. Sometimes a look is enough.'

Ajay observes that the new generation also watches movies at twice the speed on mobile. It says, 'The older generation will be thrown away, become irrelevant if they are not adapted and adapted. Whatever we do or say to them, if it is rational, will go down their throats. They will not be interested in suggestions without logic.'

Once Ajay asked his son Yug and his friends what is there to like in the movie 'The Avengers'? Everything shown in it is wrong! 'But to my surprise these boys had a scientific rationale for each character,' concludes Ajay, 'today you have to provide mass mass rational entertainment. Now no one comes to watch movies with their brains at home.'

It's true!
