Ajay Devgn is not just relying on action in his forthcoming film Action Jackson. He is using dialogues as well. Plus there are three women for him in this film being directed by Prabhu  Dheva and set for release in December.

We spoke to the actor about the film.

Excerpts.

What does these lines means “Na commitment na appointment, only punishment”?

You should tell this to your wife and you will come to know what it means.

People are talking about your dialogues in the film Action Jackson?

A lot of people have also told me the same. I think that’s a very positive sign.

Did you take an advice from Salman on how to deliver dialogues, because he loves doing those kind of lines in an action film?

Salman did not take any advice from me nor have I taken any advice from him.

Did you lose weight for this film?

I had to shed down 17 kilos in 2 months time because the script demanded bare body sequences.

What is the marketing strategy applied here for this film?

I am still trying to learn what marketing strategy is! If someone teaches me I will be happy.

I really don’t know how to do it. We follow the basic formula, interviews and stuff. I think I should learn strategy.

SRK’s Happy New Year has had a good start. Your take?

Everyone does their job well, they work hard. A film doing good at the box office, depends on the audience. We always hope that out film does well

Any fighting practice done for Action Jackson?

This sword fighting in the film has been stylized. After a long time I had to practice action while doing the sword fight scene.

How was it dancing with Prabhu Dheva?

I have followed Prabhu, and he only made me do what suits me, so it wasn’t uncomfortable.

Action Jackson, how different is this film from others?

I have done a lot of films but with this film Prabhu has given me a different presence, if you watch the film you will get it.

There are 3 heroines in the film (Sonakshi Sinha, Manasvi mamgai and Yami Gautam). How did you balance them?

The more the better, you don’t need to balance it, it gets balanced.

Do you get scared of action?

If I say that I don’t get scared then it’s a lie, when we started doing action there was no much of safety whereas now and lot more easier

What’s your take on Abs and fitness?

These are not 6 not 8 abs. It’s just natural and real.

How different is this film from other Rohit Shetty films?

I promise you this is not similar, I think that’s what’s everyone is talking about, unnecessarily people are not flying, it’s very stylized ,when you see the film you would come to know it’s very different.
