Ajay Devgn recently spoke to a leading entertainment media portal about his upcoming films and projects. The actor is all set to star in the film 'Raid' which is said to be based on true events. When asked if he was ever raided, he said, "Yes, of course. I remember one helluva long raid that happened at my office back in the ’90s. I wasn’t in town, but yes, I knew about it. And, then two days later, they didn’t find anything."
When asked if artistic films like 'Raid' are the order of the day, he said, "I don’t think movies follow any pattern or formula. There are just good films and bad films. The genre doesn’t matter as long as it has something ‘entertaining’ to offer. During 'Golmaal Again', everyone asked me whether madcap comedies were the order of the day. I remember replying then that a happy and healthy mix of genres is the way ahead. I still maintain that. Sometimes you do a serious film, sometimes you do a comedy."
Asked if his wife Kajol criticises his work, he said, "No, she doesn’t have the guts to (he jokes), but my daughter, Nysa, does. She is my harshest critic. She doesn’t spare me." He continued, "I’m fortunate to have grown up surrounded by strong women. I wouldn’t be half the man I am had it not been for the contribution of my mother and my two sisters, all of whom are fantastic. And now, I have Kajol, who is independent and every inch her own person. Nysa, too, is showing signs of becoming an independent, strong-minded person. I respect women and I think that International Women’s Day is just a day for men to remember that women are/will always be as strong as them if not stronger. Their strength needs to be celebrated every day of the year." Stay tuned for more updates.
