Ajay Devgn wants 'Pathaan' to be a super hit, Shah Rukh calls him a 'pillar of support and love'

Actor Ajay Devgn launched the second teaser of his forthcoming film 'Bholaa' on Tuesday. At the event, he talked about Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film 'Pathaan' and said that he is very happy with the response King Khan's film is getting.

The 'Drishyam' actor said, 'After the film (Drishyam 2), became super hit I would say, we need more three-four super hit films. Because after the pandemic things have slowed down. We need to inculcate that habit among people to come to theatres to watch a film. So let's keep our fingers crossed.'

'I want every film to be super duper hit. Now Pathaan is releasing and whatever reports we are reading about the advance booking it seems fantastic and I am very happy about it from the bottom of my heart,' he concluded.

The clip of Ajay Devgn from the event is being widely shared on the internet.

Shah Rukh Khan, who hosted a quick Ask SRK session a few hours later, reacted to Ajay's comments. Sharing the clip, he tweeted, 'Ajay has been a pillar of support and love to me and my family for years. He is a wonderful actor and a beautiful human being. Strong and silent.'

Ajay was quick to respond to SRK's tweet, he wrote, 'Dear @iamsrk, thank you for your love and presence. I value the bond we share as much as you do. Pathaan collections look poised to go through the roof. I’m happy that as an industry things are looking up for us.'

Shah Rukh Khan's 'Pathaan' is all set to release in theatres on January 25, 2023, while 'Bholaa', directed by Ajay Devgn, is set to release in theatres on March 30.
