The last phase of the Lok Sabha elections 2019 is scheduled for Sunday, May 19. Sunny Deol, Ajay Devgn’s long-time neighbour, is contesting from Gurdaspur, which will go to polls that day. Keeping this in mind, it was asked to Ajay, who is currently promoting his rom-com, De De Pyaar De, whether he will consider jumping into the political fray as well. “Never,” was his spontaneous response.

Taking a sigh, he explained, “I’m too shy for politics. I am uncomfortable around a crowd; almost claustrophobic. Though I’m at ease in front of the camera, I’m an introvert otherwise.”

 “Also, I may not be able to justify my job. Politics is a people-profession. You need to constantly interact with those who have placed their trust in you. You can’t be a good politician if you are too shy to go out there and actually spend time on ground zero.” The Bollywood star added.

Asked specifically about his view on a newbie like Urmila Matondkar and his neighbour Sunny, who are contesting the elections, the actor-filmmaker says, “People who wish to do good for the country can join politics. My best wishes are with Sunny and Urmila. I am sure they have thought their decision through before taking such a huge step in the direction of public service.”

“I sincerely hope they are able to bring about a change. India has got some dynamic leaders as of today. We could certainly benefit from more individuals who will work selflessly towards the larger cause of the country.” The actor concluded.

Currently, Ajay was in the news for Luv Ranjan’s next and on the work-front he’s busy with lots of projects lined up.
