Ajay Devgn has shared his thoughts on how Bollywood has evolved over the years. He pointed out that there's a big shift in how audiences react to newcomers now compared to when he started out. Back in the day, people were more lenient and would often let mistakes slide. Nowadays, he feels that audiences are pickier and less forgiving, which makes it tougher for fresh talent trying to break into the industry.

Ajay thinks back

At the trailer launch for his upcoming movie, Azaad, Ajay reflected on how the film industry has evolved since he first joined Bollywood, according to Freepress Journal.

He mentioned, “Back in the day, we learned while working on films. There was plenty of time and freedom to pick up new skills. The audience was more forgiving, and they let our mistakes slide. Nowadays, the audience is much more informed and less forgiving. This puts a lot of pressure on both new and established actors. They need to be ready to hit the ground running!”

Ajay also noted, “I believe this generation is much more equipped. Everyone aims to put their best foot forward in the end.”

He expressed his excitement about working on Azaad, especially because it allowed him to film scenes with horses. He reminisced about a time when many films featured horses prominently..
