Amitabh Bachchan and Ajay Devgn have shared screens for films like Khakhee, Aag, and Major Sahab. The two are all set to reunite on-screen with the much-anticipated film Runway 34. This is the first time that Ajay Devgn has directed the legendary Amitabh Bachchan. The film also stars Rakul Preet Singh and Boman Irani. While Ajay Devgn plays a pilot, Amitabh Bachchan plays a lawyer in the film.
On Wednesday, Amitabh Bachchan took to his social media handle to share a 34-second video explaining what made him say yes to doing the film. "Him and me had a very long association that began with his father Veeru Devgn. It's been many many years together. He has a massive contribution to my film back in the days," he is heard saying in the video.

Earlier, at the trailer launch of the film last month, Ajay Devgn had said that he would not have made the film if Bachchan had said no. "In this film, for Mr. Bachchan's role, if he wouldn't have agreed, I don't even know if I would be able to cast (anyone else). I don't think I would be making the film. I've known him ever since I was a child. I would visit his set often. Later, I went on to work with him in six films.”
Inspired by true incidents, Runway 34 revolves around Captain Vikrant Khanna played by Ajay Devgn, a flying prodigy, whose flight takes a mysterious course after take-off from an international destination. With the thrill of the unknown in the sky, this film showcases Ajay locking horns with the legend of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan; whom he has directed for the first time. The film also features Rakul Preet Singh, as a co-pilot, in a never-seen-before role.
Directed by Ajay Devgn, Runway 34 is produced by Ajay Devgn Ffilms. It is co-produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak, Vikrant Sharma, Sandeep Harish Kewlani, Tarlok Singh Jethi, Hasnain Husaini, and Jay Kanujia. Watch out for Runway 34 on Eid, April 29, 2022.
