If Amitabh Bachchan had declined his role Ajay Devgn claims he wouldn’t have made Runway 34

Published

When it comes to directing a film, actor Ajay Devgn says he looks for tough themes that inspire him as a director.

In 2008, Devgn made his directorial debut with the drama U Me Aur Hum, which he followed up with the action film Shivaay in 2016.

The actor is presently anticipating the release of Runway 34, his third directorial effort, which is described as a suspenseful thriller.

When writers Sandeep Kewlani and Aamil Keeyan Khan approached him over two years ago, Ajay Devgn stated he was attracted by the narrative.

Runway 34 is based on actual events and follows Captain Vikrant Khanna, played by Devgn, a young pilot whose aircraft takes a strange turn after taking off from an overseas location.

“I felt compelled to make the film because I was enthralled by the narrative.” When we first started working, things started to look good, and within a month, we were laying flooring.

“When I’m looking for a film to make, I look for films that are difficult to mount.” As the film is set both on the ground and in the air, it was tough to develop new imagery. But it was also thrilling,” the 52-year-old actor said.

The actor explained that he originally joined the project as a director before deciding to feature in it. He eventually agreed to invest in the film through his production company, Ajay Devgn Ffilms.

Amitabh Bachchan, Boman Irani, Rakul Preet Singh, and Angira Dhar are among the other celebrities that have walked Runway 34.

Ajay Devgn stated that he had no other casting options except to put Bachchan in the film.

“I don’t know whether I would have been able to cast Mr Bachchan in this picture if he hadn’t accepted,” says the director (any other actor). He went on to say, “I don’t believe I’d make the movie.”

When the film’s director Tinnu Anand became unwell, Devgn revealed he directed a schedule of his film Major Saab alongside the 79-year-old actor.

“However, this is the first time I’ve collaborated with him on a feature picture” (as a director). He’s someone I’ve known since I was a kid. I used to go to his show regularly. I went on to work with him in nearly six films after that. It would be trite to say anything about him because I haven’t seen any other diligent, professional performer.

“He works with incredible vigour and determination. Even if he’s having difficulty, he forgets about it once he’s onset. When I look at him, I’m encouraged to perform a better job,” he continued.

Kumar Mangat Pathak, Vikrant Sharma, Sandeep Harish Kewlani, Tarlok Singh Jethi, Hasnain Husaini, and Jay Kanujia are among the film’s co-producers. On April 29, Runway 34 will be released on the big screen.

After the release of Runway 34 Ajay Devgn receives a handwritten message from Amitabh Bachchan

Published

Amitabh Bachchan, who also featured opposite Ajay Devgn in the aviation drama, has praised Ajay Devgn’s latest directorial Runway 34. Ajay, who earlier stated that he would not have done the film if Amitabh Bachchan had not agreed to feature in it, shared a handwritten message from the legendary actor on his social media pages on Saturday. After reading the handwritten message in which Amitabh termed it an “amazing honour” to be directed by Ajay in the film, Ajay said that he feels emotional.

Ajay posted a photo of Amitabh’s message with the caption, “It’s difficult to put into words the honour of having the legendary Amitabh Bachchan feature in your directorial debut. And when he writes a handwritten message with his passionate comments, it elicits a dizzying mix of appreciation and fulfilment. Thank you very much, Amit Ji! #Runway34.”

The letter was written on a notepad with the names of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan, as well as a logo in the shape of a B for Bachchan. It was dated April 29. In the letter, Amitabh wrote, “Hello, Ajay! Ajay! Ajay! It was an unbelievable honour to be a part of ’34’ and to get such a wonderful director’s gift. Your work is excellent. It’s amazing how well you’ve put everything together. They claim it’s your finest, but I’m confident there will be many more. Congratulations.”

“And, Amitji closed his message with these lines,” Ajay wrote in another letter from Amitabh. “PS: Your expressions and performance in the cockpit were pure brilliance,” the note stated.” “Well deserved words on both sides,” his wife Kajol said on his Instagram account after seeing the messages.

Runway 34 is based on a true story from 2015, in which a Doha to Kochi flight narrowly avoided disaster after having trouble landing at the airport owing to poor weather and limited visibility. Captain Vikrant Khanna, played by Ajay Devgn, is a flying prodigy, and Tanya Albuquerque, played by Rakul Preet Singh, is his co-pilot. In the case, Amitabh Bachchan portrays Narayan Vedant, the investigating officer. Ajay has directed and produced the film in addition to acting in it.

According to the film’s review, “Ajay, once again donning the director’s hat, does an outstanding job. I must say, he’s a fantastic storyteller. He creates an immersive experience with Runway 34, rather than just acting.”

When Aamir’s mother dislikes his film she tells him hatao isko

Published

Zeenat Hussein, Aamir Khan’s mother, has explained how she reacts to his films that she dislikes. He said this during the premiere of a song from his next film, Laal Singh Chaddha. The actor also revealed how his mother reacted after seeing the Laal Singh Chaddha test screening.

Kahani is the first song from Laal Singh Chaddha that Aamir has released. Mohan Kannan has provided his vocals to the song, which was composed by Amitabh Bhattacharya.

“When Ammi dislikes a film, she will ask, “hatao isko ye kya banaya hai?” ‘Place it away.’ She says it in a sweet tone, “As to a story, Aamir said.

When asked about his mother’s reaction to Laal Singh Chaddha’s test screening, Aamir stated, “First and foremost, I always get my mother’s reaction. Then I wait for my children’s reactions. My mother was a big fan of the movie. ‘Aamir, don’t listen to anyone,’ she said after viewing it. The film is flawless; it should be released as is. ‘Don’t take anything out.’ As a result, I must know how Ammi feels.

Aamir explained why he opted to release the song rather than the video, saying, “The songs in Laal Singh Chaddha are, without a doubt, the heart and soul of the film, and this album has some of my greatest work.

Putting Pritam, Amitabh, the vocalists, and the technicians in the limelight was a deliberate decision because not only do they deserve to be in the spotlight, but the music does as well. I’m excited to see how the public reacts to the music that the crew has put their hearts and souls into.”

Laal Singh Chaddha stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh, and Chaitanya Akkineni and is an adaptation of Tom Hanks’ Forrest Gump. On August 11, the film will be released in theatres around the country.
