This is a big decision for Ajay. Actually, after sporting such a look, it would not be possible for Ajay to shoot for other films for a few days.”
Ajay will complete his other projects before starting shooting for the periodic. Pandey also revealed that the Chanakya team was supposed to kick-start the pre-production work on the upcomer in April. However, due to the lockdown, the makers of Chanakya were forced to push the pre-production work.
