When Ajay Devgn made a debut in this industry, many trade pundits went on record to say that the actor won’t survive in this industry due to his unconventional looks. It has been 27 years since his debut and Devgn is still going strong at the Box Office proving all detractors wrong.
His recent release Baadshaho took a good start at the Box Office and might join the list of hits delivered by Ajay Devgn. While promoting Baadshaho, when Devgn was asked to reveal his state of mind while reading the comments by trade pundits, he said, “I didn’t care about them. I thought, and I still think most of the trade pundits are idiots. You can’t take them seriously.”
Interestingly, nowadays it’s only the numbers at the Box Office which decide whether the film is praised by the audience or not. And Ajay, who feels too much unnecessary importance is being given to Box Office numbers shared his mind on the number game. Ajay said “Earlier, nobody was printing it and hence, it was not there, today you guys are printing and hence, people have started taking numbers seriously. To me, box office numbers matter because if you invest a certain amount, you need to recover. But that’s not the only concern for me as even appreciation matters a lot.”
Set in the backdrop of emergency in India, Baadshaho was released in 2800 screens across India and in 442 screens overseas. Whereas, the pan India rights of the film were sold for Rs 42 crore and the film has to collect in the range of Rs 80 crore to break even at the Box Office.
Baadshaho also features Emraan Hashmi, Vidyut Jammwal, Ilena D’Cruz and Sanjay Mishra in pivotal roles.
