PM Narendra Modi pays his respect to Veeru Devgn in personal note; Ajay Devgn responds

Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn's father and filmmaker Veeru Devgn passed away on May 27. As Devgn family is going through hard times, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has paid his condolences through a personal note.

Ajay Devgn received a letter from the Prime Minister Narendra Modi in which he paid his respect to late Veeru Devgan. The letter read, "I am deeply saddened to learn of the demise of Veeru Devgan who was widely respected for his outstanding work across various domains of the Hindi film industry. This is a great loss for the industry."

"There is something moving about people like Shri veeru Devgan who took great personal risks just to enthral audiences in an era of no 'visual effect', knowing well that the glory of taking those risks would not be credited to them. It is said that great things can be achieved if we do not care who gets the credit but concentrate on doing the best we can."

Ajay is deeply touched and humbled by PM Modi's gesture, following which he took to Twitter to thank him. "My Mother & entire Devgan family are deeply touched & humbled in silence by this thoughtful gesture from our Honourable Prime Minister @narendramodi. Thank you, Sir,” he wrote.
