Ajay Devgn feels his forthcoming directorial venture 'Shivaay' will inspire children.

Ajay's 'Shivaay' has associated with Sonic's TV show "Shiva" and the actor is sure that the film will get a good response from children. "'Shivaay' and 'Shiva' have the same value system and mind set, both love their families and friends and destroy evil to restore balance in society. I'm sure kids will be inspired by both the characters and love Shivaay as much as they love 'Shiva'," Ajay said in a statement.

The father of two has acted in, directed and co-produced 'Shivaay'. The film, which is slated to release on October 28 around the occasion of Diwali, will clash at the box office with filmmaker Karan Johar's 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', which is currently facing problems for featuring Pakistan actor Fawad Khan.

Apart from Ajay, the film also stars Sayyeshaa Saigal, Erika Kaar, Vir Das and Girish Karnad.
