Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgan discuss Singham
During a conversation when Rohit was asked about the dialogue and whether he knew how iconic it would become in the years after its release, he said: “Actually, we just wrote those characters – Singham and the villain. Jaykant Shikre (played by Prakash Raj), in Maharashtrian. This became an iconic line! He utters that line only once in the film, otherwise he is called a villain. We never thought…for us it was just a line! Then again a language that everyone speaks now! “We never thought about it that way.”
Ajay also reiterated the same and said, “At that moment it was just one line! There are a lot of lines and at that time no one knows what comes after that. While doing this it was just a line and then it became a cult line.
