Vidyut Jammwal on working with Ajay Devgn: He knows it all, he has seen it all

Milan Lutharia’s upcoming release ‘Baadshaho’ is catching everyone’s attention. Credit it to the ensemble cast it boasts of! The presence of Ajay Devgn and Vidyut Jammwal together makes it even more interesting. While Ajay happens to be one of the senior most action heroes of the industry, Vidyut it setting new standards of action with his highly expertise in martial arts skills.

Needless to say, we get to experience plenty of both in ‘Baadshaho’. Vidyut, however, is in awe of Ajay and says it was a pleasure working with him.

“When you are working with one of the most brilliant action heroes in the country, you learn so much. He knows it all; he has seen it all, so the experience was great. Every memory (of the shoot) is special. I enjoyed working with Ajay sir,” the ‘Commando 2’ actor told HT Cafe. (Also Read: Is that Vidyut Jammwal doing push-ups on glass bottles?)

We earlier reported how Vidyut was Milan Lutharia’s foremost choice for that particular character.  “Milan’s search for someone to match up to Ajay and Emraan ended when he decided to cast Vidyut. However, he wanted to change Vidyut’s presentation significantly from his earlier films to give him a new dimension as an actor and to suit the character he plays in ‘Baadshaho’. They did several look tests for the hair and makeup, especially his moustache, since he plays a north Indian army officer. The final look was appreciated by Vidyut’s female fans as well,” a source had told the press.

Vidyut, on the other hand, thoroughly enjoyed shooting in Rajasthan. “I had been to Rajasthan about 15 times, but, when you shoot in a city, you get to see its best parts. You shoot in great places and I saw a different side of Rajasthan,” he said.

‘Baadshaho’ also stars Ileana D’Cruz, Esha Gupta and Emraan Hashmi.
