Ajay Devgn's office has issued a statement clarifying that a video being circulated of a man involved in a Delhi brawl is not him.

A video of a brawl in New Delhi, which has been doing the rounds on the Internet, identifies one of the individuals in the clip as Ajay Devgn. It is said that the actor was ‘attacked’ by protesting farmers for supporting the farm laws. Devgn put speculation to rest by posting a clarification.

Post the promotion of 'Tanhaji-The Unsung Warrior' in January 2020, Ajay Devgn has not visited Delhi. So media reports of a brawl involving the superstar outside a Delhi pub are absolutely baseless and untrue. We request news agencies and media picking this up to please note that Mr Devgn has been in Mumbai the entire time shooting for 'Maidaan', 'MayDay' and 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' and he hasn't set foot in the Capital in 14 months. Request all media to please cross-check before putting out anything." His spokesperson further added that he had not visited the capital after the promotions of Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior in January 2020, and has been busy shooting for his films.
The video shows two men fighting outside a pub, using unparliamentary language. One of the men, wearing a white shirt, has been being mistaken for Ajay.
Meanwhile, Ajay's production The Big Bull is all set for an OTT release. The film stars Abhishek Bachchan and is based on the securities scam of 1992. It is said to loosely account stockbroker Harshad Mehta's life and his involvement in financial crimes over a period of 10 years, from 1980 to 1990.
Ajay's upcoming line-up of films as an actor includes Bhuj: The Pride of India, Maidaan and MayDay, which he has also directed.
