Ajay Devgn shares his views on “Saiyaara” success
In the midst of the success of Mohit Suri’s directorial Saiyaara, a film led by debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, Ajay Devgn recently shared his thoughts on newcomers in the film industry.
Amid the promotion of his upcoming comedy “Son of Sardaar 2” alongside
co-star Mrunal Thakur on Archana Puran Singh’s YouTube channel, Ajay weighed in on his early lessons in cinema and spoke on why he believes many outsiders are “misguided” on the industry.
Archana was joined by her husband, actor Parmeet Sethi, and their sons Ayushmann and Aaryamann in the interaction with the lead pair.
When asked any lessons learnt from his father, Veeru Devgan, a renowned stunt choreographer, Ajay said, that whatever he learnt technically and about the industry is all because of his revered father late Veeru Devgan – the kind of dedication he had and what he taught him…the honesty towards work, all of it comes from him.”
Archana then commented on the presence of film families in the industry, saying, “You know, this is one of the reasons that the film industry prefers people to come in from film families because they already learn professional ethics from their parents.”
Agreeing with her, Ajay added, “You get to learn a lot.”
Ajay Devgn went on to share his perspective on newcomers, particularly those sans filmì background and he isn’t talking about everybody because there are sensible people, however, number of times, they come in not knowing if they want to be an actor or a star. You cannot be a star on day one; first, you need to be an actor. So, he feels that there’s a misunderstanding somewhere for people; they are misguided about the industry…those from outside film families. He thinks that ultimately, it’s hard work that counts.
Son of Sardaar 2 is Vijay Kumar Arora directorial and jointly produced by Ajay Devgn, Jyoti Deshpande, N R Pachisia and Pravin Talreja.
A spiritual sequel to the 2012 film Son of Sardaar, the film is slated for theatrical release on August 1.
