Questions Ajay Devgan in an exclusive column written by him for Indiatimes Movies. People keep asking me how I decided that this was the right time to direct my own film. To be honest, I don’t really know if this is the right time or not, but I know that this is a story I wanted to tell. A story I believed in. And felt strongly about. As they say, one from the heart.
Why this particular story? I can list many reasons, but the most important, and the primary reason for me to want to make this film, is its positivity. I’ve noticed that people these days have become more cynical and less optimistic than before. They tend to naturally have a negative outlook about things. Especially with regards to love, relationships, feelings, marriage, the works. In today’s scientific world, everyone seems to be looking for tangible justifications for things they do. Even with regards to love, people spend hours theorizing about chemical reactions in the body, the impact of hormones and other such clinical things. My question is - where has all our romance gone? Why this obsession with rationale? Why do we hesitate to accept that it is possible, that deep within, one soul makes a connection with another – instinctively, impulsively, immediately?
Love at first sight. Happy marriages. Soulmates. These are concepts I believe in. I know that they exist. And as a result, they are important elements of my film.
