Thursday, 30th July 2015, 3:07 PM IST Since the past few years, we haven’t seen Ajay Devgn in romantic roles. But now, the ‘Drishyam’ actor has decided to turn his way towards romance. Ajay will be starring in a romantic film which will be directed by Anees Bazmee. Ajay who has hardly been a part of romantic films said, "I represent the common man and look like one too. So I can't play a Jumping Jack who looks like a Greek God. When I pranced around with a beautiful woman in a love song, the men in the audience felt the woman on screen was out of their reach, which is why romantic films never worked for me." Anees has earlier directed Ajay in the romantic flick ‘Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha’ which also starred Kajol. Anees recollects, "Ajay wondered if I'd lost my mind. How could I expect him to play a thief who stole from the leading lady and she still fell in love with him? He came on board, hesitantly, constantly telling me the film would not work. It was a superhit." After four years later, the duo once again worked on a psychological thriller, ‘Deewangee’. "So when I thought of a film with Ajay, I presented him with a crime thriller. In fact, over the last three years, I have narrated half-a-dozen stories to him and he turned them all down, finally telling me that he wanted to do a romance along the lines of ‘Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha’ and I should write one keeping him in mind," said Anees. Ajay confirmed the news and said, "Anees was a well-known screenplay writer in the '90s. We did three films together. I've rejected many more projects than what I have filmed with him. But we will do a film together soon. He has approached me with some great scripts and I have finalised one."
