I have worked with Salman, Aamir and other heroes, there were no ego problems then, reveals Ajay Devgn!

Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn is one actor who enjoys a massive fan following. The actor, who is presently shooting for Golmaal 4, feels that the loyalty that the senior actors enjoys is something that the newer generation doesn't because audience has changed over the years.

In an interview with an agency, Ajay told, "The newer generation of audiences are not loyal to anybody. We have been lucky that a segment of the public has been loyal to us for the past 25 years. So we have that plus point. But otherwise, they will only go and watch the film that they feel they'll understand,"

He also expressed that with the advent of social media, the mystery around a star's life has died. "I feel that the aura of the star is dying. I liked the mystery that came with being a star, I still do. But today, there is so much exposure. Say, if one is not active on the social media, they may start feeling insecure seeing others doing it. They may feel the pressure."

Devgn confessed that, when he started off as an actor, he never had any ego clashes with his contemporaries. But now the scenario has changed. Admits Ajay, "I have worked with Salman, Aamir and other heroes. All of us used to work together and there were no ego problems. Nobody was insecure about what the other person was doing. Earlier, we used to have 'Golmaal'-like fun atmosphere on the sets of almost every film. Today, you can't expect to have that. Maybe the newer generation has that problem."

He adds later, "But their never-to-please attitude is a good thing. It keeps you on your toes. You will have to make good films. You will have to improve the quality. Anyway, all the films cannot work at the same time. Only 30 films do well out of the 100 average ones that are made."

Ajay Devgn also feels that Bollywood needs to pull up its socks as Hollywood cinema is being preferred over Hindi movies these days by the viewers. "It's sad today that Hollywood films are doing way better than our own films. Due to Netflix and all, you get to see a lot in the comfort of your home. It's important to have that cinema experience. If you won't bring that to the audience, they'd prefer watching films at home.", Ajay ends conversation.
