Shah Rukh Khan calls Ajay Devgn 'pillar of support and family' after he praises Pathaan at Bholaa's teaser launch event

On Tuesday, Ajay Devgn said that he wants every film to be a super hit and mentioned that is happy that Shah Rukh Khan's ‘Pathaan’ is heading to record the advance booking. While interacting with media during the teaser release of Bholaa, Ajay stated, “after the film (Drishyam 2), became superhit I would say, we need more three-four superhit 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.”

He further mentioned, "I want every film to be a 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.”

Now, Shah Rukh Khan took to Twitter and reacted to Ajay’s statement. He shared the video and wrote, “Ajay has been a pillar of support and love to me and my family for years. He is a wonderful actor and beautiful human being. Strong and silent.”
