- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,November 24 2021]
Ajay Davgan has been working in Bollywood since last thirty years and he has only gotten better with age. The actor crossed the milestone on Monday and on the ocassion he opened up about how he got into the film industry and what exactly led to his debut film. Apparently it was his father, Veeru Devgan who wanted to launch Ajay as an actor while he himself had no aspirations of becoming as big as he is today.
Ajay told Hindustan Times, It was my father’s (Veeru Devgan) dream to launch me as an actor. I was just required to focus on realising his dream. Whether I would be successful or not is a thought I didn’t toy with at that stage. I just did what I was told. No one can enter the movies planning stardom for themselves. You have to work hard and pray your destiny carries you forward. When Phool Aur Kaante became the craze it did, I was catapulted to stardom.
Referring to his now iconic motorcycle split scene, Ajay stated, Every daredevil youngster in the country wanted to make his way through life doing a split on two motorcycles! I was immature, young, unprepared for stardom. God, my parents’ blessings and the blessings of the industry and fans gave me the adulation a star receives.”
