Rohit Shetty made his directorial debut with the Ajay Devgn starrer ‘Zameen’ more than a decade ago in 2003. Since then, the two have worked together in 9 films. In fact, Rohit has only directed two films that did not feature Ajay and both of those (Chennai Express, Dilwale) featured Shah Rukh Khan in the lead.
Now with reports that all is not well between Shetty and SRK after their 2015 Christmas release ‘Dilwale’ failed to beat the competition, Rohit returns to work with Ajay in the fourth Golmaal film.
Talking about the relationship he shares with Ajay, Shetty said “‘I know Ajay is one guy who will stand by me whenever I need him. Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) is another. I love them. I know Ajay since the last 26 years. With him, even if there’s some work to be done, if I tell his staff or my staff, I know it will happen, so I don’t worry. That understanding is there between us. There is an unspoken understanding between us.”
Shetty also spoke about his other friends in the industry “Some of them are not from the film industry. There’s Prasad, Amrish and Bhaskar, who are all in different professions and they are all my childhood friends since my school days in Dahisar, where I used to stay with my grandmother. I met them when I was 10 years old and have been friends since.”
”People feel that when one achieves fame, one leaves the past behind. With me, it has never happened that way. These guys have been with me since the last 33 years and nothing has changed between us in that time. I didn’t leave my roots behind and carry forward different people who came into my life” he added.

Be Honest….Plz Make Like 1st Golmal N 1st Singham…Other R All Shit Movies…Plz Improve Ur G4 Like 1st Golmal…In This Genre U Have Ability….
Rohit and Ajay combo never disappoints. Hope Golmaal 4 is good as Golmaal 1.
Wishing you all the best guys.
@Anand 11:11 am : Have you taken the sole responsibility of spilling utter shit on every second page of indicine ?
Do you have any proof backing your statement? If yes, post it here else just get lost.
And then you come crying when any SRK fan posts a negative comment on Salman article.
Actually you all deserve that.
Equation is simple.
Starting with CE, SRK exhausted the Masala genre with back-to-back three masala movies which eventually ended with Dilwale and later he realized that he dwelled way too much into this genre.
And now, he has decided not to do any masala movies so obviously there is no need of his re-association with Rohit.
And those, who are calling SRK selfish, Rohit was just a director and he was paid heavily both for Dilwale as well as CE. So he didn’t do any favor when he directed SRK.
Moreover, if Rohit was the solo reason for the success of CE, then why didn’t his previous movies cross 150 cr (let alone 200 cr marks) ?
You haters are nothing else but double standard ki dukaan.
@anand_the fake.how big shameless you’re.may how many movies Rohit will do with ajay it’ll not cross DILWALE’S collection.
Pathetic SHETTY’S pathetic direction le down DILWALE big time.Rohit Shetty forgot His own identity and tried to copy MEGALEGEND YASHJI and hence his film becomes huge let down.
But still KING KHAN didn’t said anything against Rohit.but this shitty shetty is now completely forgotten HIS BIGGEST SUCCESS GIVING STAR.anyways,duniya mein achai ab nahi raha.Rohit should do work with shitty devgan ,his class exactly matches with shitty devgan not a CLASSIC MEGASTAR LIKE KING KHAN.
and anand,your bhai is the most crapiest,selfish,businessman binding behind masala genre,KING OF BOLLYWOOD always taken risk not like your coward classless bhabijaan.
Today is 9th August.that means Chennai express completed 3 years.
@anand
no offense, but even Salman had dumped and filed cases against Veer makers after its debacle
it happens in the industry. Ya it was the ego of Team Dilwale.Srk and Rohit should have been wiser. They got huge opening but shouldnt have been confident of WOM of such screenplay
We have to be honest, Dilwale was a pathetic film and even without clash it would have under-performed because of Rohit bad direction. Singham Returns was a major disappointment too. Let’s hope that Shetty gets back to good entertainers…
It’s a well known fact how important he takes Ajay. He is the main reason of being very successful. Waiting 4 G4!!!!
Confirmed blockbuster in advance Golmaal 4!!!!!
If rohit was not
Ajay is Saif
In fact saif had bigger hits 2000s
Superstar alwys Khans Kumar
And guys, stop claiming that Rohit needs Ajay… Even Dilwale’s failure was a highest grosser than Rohit’s biggest hit with Ajay. Don’t compare King Khan and Ajay, both are very good actors but they don’t share the same level of stardom !
@Raj 2…what was the verdict of Dilwale? Was it profitable for Rohit..Stop being childish please….I love Srk ok but does not mean you blabber trash…what’s their to accept that their combo is fantastic? Hun?
Stardom level? Ajay is getting big lucrative dates simple…He is not confused in selecting when to release his movies …
@Sss…
Why do you become confused and sound like a real cry baby on every Ajay article. If I hated an actor so much believe me I will not even waste 5 seconds to waste my precious time….Power of Ajay Devgn!!! You envy Ajay…keep going on….if you have any high bp or heart beat problem I can direct you to some of my fellow doctors there in india….Jaalpukra…

Varun dhawan, if it would have your solo starrer then we would have believed.
But it also has leap year blockbuster giving actor. Hence untill 2017 no chance for him to give a blockbuster…
