At a promotional event for his upcoming comedy Total Dhamaal, Ajay Devgn talked about celebrities’ remarks about the Pulwama attack getting harsh reactions. Ajay had recently announced that Total Dhamaal will not be releasing in Pakistan in the aftermath of the attacks.
In New Delhi promoting his latest film, Ajay spoke about the sensitivity of the current situation in the country and the importance of being careful on social media.
Ajay’s Total Dhamaal co-star Jaaved Jaffrey had to face the wrath of the internet when he tweeted his thoughts on the Pulwama attack. Jaaved apologized later, writing, “ My heartfelt apologies to my friends, followers and fellow Indians who got upset over a tweet of mine. I didn’t mean it the way it was interpreted. It was a wrong choice of words. Please read my earlier tweets on my timeline condemning the terrorists and Pakistan before judging.”
Total Dhamaal also stars Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Riteish Deshmukh and Arshad Warsi. It is directed by Indra Kumar and will release on 22 February.
