Mumbai:
Ajay Devgn, who was given a National Film Award for his performance in Zakhm, says that he misses hearing scripts as moving as the 1998 movie. He feels that the new generation writers in Hindi filmdom are not penning such scripts anymore.
"Zakhm I would say, is one of my best characters and the sole reason for that is when I had heard the story by (Mahesh) Bhatt saab, it was so touching that we used to have tears in our eyes," Ajay said here. (Also read: I've not seen Himmatwala, Rascals Till Date: Ajay Devgn)
He admits people are experimenting with non-commercial cinema, but says "the problem is that I have not heard a script which moves me like Zakhm did."
"I was the one who started this trend by doing films like Zakhm, Thakshak and Raincoat or else the actors of commercial cinema never did these kind of films. The depth is missing in the new generation and people are not writing such scripts," he added. (Also read: Ajay Devgn vs Sylvester Stallone in Independence Day Box Office Clash)
