Because it’s a conflict drama, it’s about conflict between two people and the kind of presence I needed, the kind of performance I needed, I didn’t have an alternative for Mr Bachchan,” he adds. I had worked with her in De De Pyar De, so I knew that she would pull it off. I am very happy that I cast Rakul, because when you see the film… I mean she has gone beyond my expectations. My character is brilliant, he is a genius but he is a rule breaker, there is this arrogance…he is a little grey and that is what I loved about him. “Obviously I suited the role so I came on board (laughs). I found the story really compelling,” says the actor-director. After working for two to three months on the script I became so involved that I wanted to direct it. They had made those changes and they were waiting for my call. I was sitting at home and suddenly remembered this script and I asked the writers if they had made the changes. One year passed by and then the pandemic happened. I told them to incorporate these changes and then we will meet. At that time, I wasn’t thinking of directing. “But I told the writers that I would like to see some changes in the script. The story was conceptualised about three years ago when the writers approached Devgn who found the script quite intriguing. You have to enhance the drama but the basic storyline is the same,” he says. Though you know this is a true incident you don’t know the details of the incident. But to create drama obviously we had to take certain creative liberties.

We also took training in terms of how to operate a plane, psychologically what you are thinking, we had a captain on board for that. I wanted that feeling of claustrophobia, I didn’t want the cameras to go out and cheat, so I worked out a lot of things to make sure that cameras could move inside that space only. And even as a lot of drama had to be created, I didn’t want the cockpit to be bigger.
I have done multiple camera shoots before but this one was tough because we were shooting in a cockpit where there was limited space to move. Similarly, creating drama inside a cockpit was not easy but I like the challenge. There were technical challenges. “I mentally plan everything but I improvise a lot on the set. On the set it becomes a lot of hard work, as you are setting up the cameras yourself, working out the performances, working out the scenes and then you have to perform the scene as an actor, go back as a director, watch all the shots, sit for edits…But I enjoy the process. And when I make films there has to be a challenge like in Shivaay (2016) where it was difficult to shoot on those mountains and move with cameras.

Devgn and Rakul play the aircraft’s pilots while Bachchan is the officer investigating the incident and later has a face-off with Devgn, who is put to trial for his erratic actions as the pilot.ĭirecting and acting simultaneously requires a lot of hard work, says Devgn. Set to release on 29 April, the film, co-starring Amitabh Bachchan and Rakul Preet Singh, revolves around Captain Vikrant Khanna (played by Devgn), a flying prodigy, whose flight takes a mysterious course after take-off from an international destination. Now, he’s directing, producing and starring in the upcoming Runway 34, a thriller inspired by the true event of the Jet Airways Doha-Kochi flight that had a narrow escape after facing difficulties due to bad weather and unclear visibility, sometime in August 2015. Ajay Devgn’s last three films- Sooryavanshi, Gangubai Kathiawadi and RRR , have all been box-office hits.
