Ajay Devgn and Rohit will be seen being open and honest on the couch in the next episode of "Koffee with Karan Season 8."
When discussing why it takes so long for new performers to accept a role, Rohit and Ajay reminisce about the days when movie stars followed their gut feelings and didn't look to social media for approval.
Talking about the same, Karan Johar asked: ¡°What do you think about the newer generation of actors? Do you think they have that fighting spirit?
Rohit replied: ¡°I think too much insecurity or too much validation they need from social media, from people they don't know. I think they are very insecure, I mean I don't know why, but maybe they have their own thing because they are born in this generation.¡±
Karan added: ¡°I love that when you go to Ajay or Shah Rukh, Salman and Akshay, after a point, I mean I am not saying that this is sacrosanct, I think they go on their instinct, they will say mujhe 20 minutes mein kahaani bata do and after 20 minutes they understand the world of the film because they have an understanding, today you go to these younger actors.¡±
He added, ¡°I am not saying they are wrong, but they want to ghuso into every scene, dialogue, they want a detailed narration and then they take too long to get back to you and you are waiting. With the older generation of actors you get that response immediately.¡±
Koffee with Karan' Season 8 airs on Disney+ Hotstar.
