Artistes work on their projects for months, and this includes the planning for the script, casting and other pre-production tasks before the shooting, and the post-production work follows after the schedule wrap. The cast and crew work together to create an entertaining experience for the audience.

It's natural for a person who might have worked on it to want to see the end result, and how their particular work on the film, be it through acting, direction or technical expertise, stood out on the screen.

However, Ajay Devgn does not fall under this category. The actor has not watched many of his films including recent releases like RRR and Gangubai Kathiawadi. Devgn cited his busy schedule and apprehensions over his performance as the reasons for it.

Ajay Devgn sparks controversy amid release of Runway 34

Though he did not watch RRR and Gangubai Kathiawadi, Devgn might have watched his latest release, Runway 34, as he is the director of the movie. However, the Padma Shri recipient was currently in the news for his statement on Hindi language. He questioned Kannada superstar Kichcha Sudeep for saying that Hindi was not the 'national language' in the wake of Kannada film KGF: Chapter 2 emerging as a massive success.

Ajay asked why Sudeep dubbed his films in Hindi if that was the case, and then claimed that 'Hindi is the national language'. The statement became a huge talking point as Karnataka politicians slammed his comment and pro-Kannada activists held protests against him.
