Rakul Preet Singh has a reputation for being kind and professional, which is evident in the way she talks about Ajay Devgn, her co-star in De De Pyaar De 2.
Rakul recently acknowledged that, despite their strong on-screen chemistry, their real-life relationship is based more on respect than casual friendship.
In a chat with Bollywood Bubble, the actress opened up about why she can’t be “dost-dost” with Ajay, explaining that her admiration for him goes far beyond their work together.
“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,” she said.
For Rakul, that sense of respect extends to how she addresses him, too. “For me, it will always be that ‘sir’ thing,” she added with a smile.
Rakul went on to explain that while friendships often form naturally with co-stars closer to her own age, it’s different when she works with someone as experienced as Ajay. “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,”) she shared honestly.
