Singham Again is making huge money at the box office these days. The film is getting good response from the audience. Ajay Devgan, who is enjoying the success of Singham Again, has given an exclusive interview to Dainik Bhaskar.
Ajay Devgan said that in earlier films the characters of police officers were mostly shown negative. People got to see a different character through Singham. Perhaps this is why the audience likes this role so much.
Read the highlights of the conversation with Ajay Devgan..
Question- Why does the audience like the character of Singham so much? answer- In most of the earlier films, the police were shown negative and corrupt. Through Singham, people got to see an honest and principled police officer. I think that's why people like the character of Singham so much.
Question- The story of the film is inspired by Ramayana, there must have been both fear and challenge while doing it? answer- There was no fear because we were not showing the complete story of Ramayana. We just showed a similar story. I never said that Singham, Ram or Ranveer Singh became Hanuman. However, many people told me that they got a lot of information related to Ramayana after watching this film.
Question- What would you like to say about Arjun Kapoor's role? answer- When we cast Arjun, people were a little confused. However, he did a great job. He has breathed life into his character. When a person works hard continuously, he definitely gets results sooner or later.
Question- When you did your first film Singham in 2011, did you think that later on it would become a complete cop universe? answer- Didn't think of it at all. Well, during the shooting of the film, it is not known exactly what is going to happen next. Gradually, when the audience starts liking it, then the episodes start getting added. No actor or director makes films thinking that he has to create a franchise in the future. It just happens with time.
Question- Which genre of films do you like doing the most? answer- An actor should love his work, not the genre. I don't want to do the same genre of films continuously. I want to make changes every now and then. If I do a comedy film, I will try that my next film is not of comedy genre.
Question- You started your career as an action hero, what is the difference between then and today's action? answer- There has been a lot of difference. It has become easier to take action today than before. Obviously technology has become much better. Earlier, actors had to do many things on their own. There was a lot of risk factor also. Now this has become very rare.
Question- What do you have to say about film critics, how do you see them? answer- In earlier times, the number of film critics was less. Today anyone who has a phone is roaming around as a film critic. They may also have some agenda. Well, if you pay too much attention to these things, you will spoil your own mind. Anyway, I believe that we cannot keep everyone happy in this world.
Question- You have received four National Awards, you are also honored with Padma Shri. However, why don't you appear at film awards shows? answer- There have been so many award shows, I don't understand which one is genuine. These seem like more TV shows. The actor who is present is given an award, the one who is not is not given an award. That's why I don't take these award shows seriously.
Question- Who is your favorite co-actor among Sanjay Dutt, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar? answer– I have worked with all three. It was fun working with all three. I share a very good bond with these three. These three are my friends.
