Actor Ajay Devgn is one of the most versatile and popular actors of the Bollywood film industry if his box office records are anything to go by. He got married to Kajol in 1999. The couple now have two children, a daughter named, Nysa, who is now 16 years old and a son, Yug, who is nine years old. Ajay Devgn and his wife Kajol are doting parents who have spoken out about their bond with their children several times during various interviews.

Ajay Devgn's daughter Nysa is now a social media celebrity thanks to the spotlight she receives from the fans of her parents. In an interview with an entertainment media, Ajay stated how he felt when his children come under unnecessary media scrutiny. He stated that people online and paparazzi forget that his daughter is still a teenager and that he does not like it when she is trolled. While he is fine with receiving criticism, he finds it unfair that his daughter is being affected due to the popularity of her parents and stated that he wished that the media and social media users did not scrutinise his daughter. He also stated that while Nysa used to feel bad about the trolls, now even she has grown a thick skin and is no longer affected by that.

He once told Yug to go to sleep while he was watching TV. In response, Yug asked Ajay why he was on the iPad.
