Rakul Preet Singh says she can't call Ajay Devgn her friend

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Rakul Preet Singh said, "Not dost-dost. I think the bond is very… like, respect. For me, he’s still Ajay Devgn, right? You know, he is such a senior actor and an amazing person."

The actress went on to say that she will be addressing Ajay with respect. She said, "For me, it will always be that ‘sir’ thing."


Explaining why she can't be friends with her co-star, Rakul added, "Jo aapke age group ke hote hain ya younger actors—woh friends ban jaate hain. But with Ajay sir, I still have that ‘sir,’ and I'm not one who can call myself a newcomer, yet I'm still a way less experienced person. So that kind of a relationship (actors who are in your age group or who are younger—they become friends. But with Ajay sir, I still have that 'sir,' and I'm not someone who can call myself a newcomer, yet I'm still a way less experienced person. So it's that kind of a relationship)."
