Ajay Devgn and Rohit Shetty, whose friendship can be traced back to over three decades, are prepping for one of the biggest action entertainer franchises that marks its return in 2024. The actor-filmmaker duo recently appeared on the chat show Koffee With Karan 8, wherein they discussed several aspects of their career and life, in a candid conversation with Karan Johar. Having been in the industry for decades and witnessed the career graph of many, the duo discussed the current crop of actors with Johar, wherein they spoke about their insecurities.

Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn, both of whom have worked with the younger lot of stars, were asked about their opinion on the current set of actors. When Karan Johar asked if they were insecure, Rohit agreed and added, “I think too much of insecurity and they need too much validation from social media, from people they don't know.” He also agreed with KJo’s theory of them being overthinkers.  Amid this, Karan Johar also made a mention of the highly-anticipated entertainer Singham Again, by stating that Rohit is ‘putting together an army who will come together on the big screens’. The film is expected to feature Ajay Devgn and Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead along with Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, among others making brief but pivotal appearances in this action drama.

Furthermore, Karan also wondered if they have insecurities and issues about doing two-hero films. For the unversed, Ajay Devgn has done several two hero films with actors like Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Salman Khan, among others.  When asked if the actors don’t feel secure enough to do such films, Ajay responded, “I think they don't have the security to do solos also. They take three years to decide whether to do this or that.”

In the same breath, the duo also discussed the extensive PR machinery used by the current generation to stay in limelight with Ajay Devgn even calling it as a ‘mirage’, further asserting that these tactics hardly works in reality.
