Ajay Devgn reveals why it took him so long to do a supernatural horror film after Bhoot
Ajay Devgn, at the trailer launch of Shaitaan, stated that the horror genre and supernatural thriller genre have always thrived in Bollywood. He mentioned that in the earlier days, the Ramsay brothers were known for making films in such genres, and regardless of whether the film featured big or small actors, it usually found success amongst the viewers. Ajay then revealed that after receiving tremendous acclaim for his 2003 horror thriller film Bhoot, he wanted to do more films in the same genre. However, he was never offered any exciting projects of the specific genre. Finally, after 20 years, with Shaitaan, he once again got the opportunity to be a part of a supernatural horror thriller film, and he is glad about it. Check out the video below.
Check out this video of R. Madhavan below:
The trailer of Shaitaan depicts the story of Kabir (Ajay Devgn) and his family, and how their fun weekend retreat takes a nightmarish turn when they let a friendly but mysterious stranger (R. Madhavan) into their house. As the clock ticks, the family is forced to confront their worst fears in this gripping tale that deals with the sinister elements of Indian Black Magic. Ajay Devgn once again excels in the role of a helpless family man who needs to protect his family and save their lives at any cost. Certainly, the biggest highlight of the trailer has been R. Madhavan. He is the one essaying the character of Shaitaan, and going by his performance glimpses from the film, it seems Madhavan is all set to scare everyone after years of making people fall in love with him.
