At this point, Karan Johar asked them to offer their opinions on the current Bollywood actors. Rohit Shetty voiced his opinion, saying, "There's too much insecurity." He continued by saying youngsters seek validation from social media. “They are very insecure. Maybe they have their own thing because they are born in this generation," he said.
They unanimously agreed when KJo inquired if they overthink things. "I think they overthink," Ajay remarked, adding that he doesn't think they have the security of doing solo films. "They take 3 years to decide if they have to do this or that.”
Ajay Devgn on nepotism
Nepotism was one of the many subjects that Ajay Devgn and Rohit Shetty discussed in the ninth episode of Karan Johar's Koffee With Karan 8.
"People don't realize that the generations have worked and worked very hard to reach till here," Ajay stated in response to nepotism. It's not an easy story...The struggle is the same for everyone and you have to work hard. Everybody has to do that." The actor added that he has fractured both of his ankles, saying, "People don't see that part of your hard work. They just think 'They get everything handed to them.' We don't."
Meanwhile, Rohit and Ajay have been friends for decades and have produced successful box office films such as the Golmaal series and the Cop Universe installments. With Singham Again, they're all set to blow up the silver screen.
