Ajay Devgn vs Kiccha Sudeep: Ram Gopal Varma says ‘North stars are jealous of South stars’

Yesterday, Bollywood superstar Ajay Devgn and Kannada actor Kiccha Sudeep indulged in a social media argument. It all started when both started giving their honest opinions on the Hindi language.

When Sudeep made the remark, everything quickly devolved into a quarrel, “Someone said that a pan India film (‘KGF: 2’) was made in Kannada. I’d like to make a small correction. Hindi is no more a national language. They (Bollywood) are doing pan-India films today. They are struggling by dubbing in Telugu and Tamil, but it’s (the success) not happening. Today we are making films that are going everywhere.”

Ajay Devgn responded strongly on Twitter, writing, “@KicchaSudeep my brother, According to you if Hindi is not our national language then why do you release your mother tongue movies by dubbing them in Hindi? Hindi was, is and always will be our mother tongue and national language. Jan Gan Man.”

While both actors settled their issues peacefully on Twitter, Sudeep did make a point when he shared, “And sir @ajaydevgn, I did understand the txt you sent in Hindi. Tats only coz we all have respected, loved and learnt Hindi. No offense sir, but was wondering what’d the situation be if my response was typed in Kannada.!!
Don’t we too belong to India sir.”

When talking to the ETimes filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, who has worked in both Hindi and Telugu agreed with Sudeep and stated, “I honestly think Kannada superstar Sudeep has driven an incredible point when he said, what if he answers in Kannada to a Hindi tweet from Ajay Devgn, which should force everyone to realise that there’s no North and South and India is just one, which the North based Ajay doesn’t seem to understand and the South based Sudeep seems to, full on.”

RGV took a harsh look at the issue and said, “A Kannada dubbed film is at logger heads with a Hindi original film starring Ajay Devgn and the great Amitabh Bachchan. It is estimated to have a 6 crore opening day compared to a 56 crore opening day of a Kannada dubbed film.”

He also shared a tweet late night, that said, “The base undeniable ground truth @KicchaSudeep sir ,is that the north stars are insecure and jealous of the south stars because a Kannada dubbing film #KGF2 had a 50 crore opening day and we all are going to see the coming opening days of Hindi films.”

Meanwhile, Ajay Devgn is gearing up for the release of his much-awaited film Runway 34, with Rakul Preet Singh and Amitabh Bachchan.
