'I am a switch on-switch off actor'

'I don't let it affect my life because otherwise, we will go mad.'

- 

That is the problem in our country. Anyone can get up and say I am from this sector that and you cannot do this, movie superstar Ajay Devgn tells in the first part of a freewheeling conversation.

What attracted you to Indian Air Force officer Vijay Karnik's story on which Bhuj is based?

I thought it was a great story. Bhuj is about a lot of heroes, not just Vijay Karnik. Bhuj is about those women who had nothing to do with the army, navy or air force. It was an impossible task for them. It's a story of a battle, which, if we would have lost, India would have been divided. Bhuj and that whole section would not have been a part of India.

Why didn't you think of releasing in theatres?

It was too late for that. We were supposed to release the film last August, but it delayed because of the lockdown. When you make a product, as an actor, director, producer or any technician, you want the maximum people to come and watch it. If you're getting appreciation on whatever platform, why wouldn't you want that?
