Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn on Singham`s iconic line `Aata majhi satakli`

Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn on Singham`s iconic line `Aata majhi satakli`

The film `Singham` has been re-released in theatres On Friday, director Rohit Shetty and actor Ajay Devgn attended a special fan screening of the film and also spoke in depth about the film recalling their memories of making the iconic cop drama. During the conversation, the director-actor duo spoke about the iconic dialogue `Aata Majhi Satakli` and the popular pose of `Singham`.  When the host asked Rohit and Ajay about who wrote the line `Aata Majhi Satakli` that went on to become iconic, they said that it was casually written in the script. They never thought it would get so popular.  Talking about the same, Shetty said, ” We had just written the line because both the characters the villain Jaikant Shikre and hero Bajirao Singham are Maharashtrians and it became an iconic line.

Over about two and half decades in Bollywood, she has largely embodied the super-sanitised, mainstream heroine’s role.  So much so that it feels sweetly strange to watch her casually slip in the throwaway f-word—once even to her father on this screen!  Kareena’s presence apart, The Buckingham Murders is entirely what one could describe as a British murder-mystery. Although specifically set among Brits of desi origin in England. As a race, they get identified as ‘British Asians’.  Wherein two Brit Asian cops (including Kareena’s character) lead an investigation …
