Every year, January 12 is observed as National Youth Day in India as a tribute to Swami Vivekananda. On this day, Ajay Devgn decided to write his heart out in an open letter to his 20-year-old self, surprising everyone. The superstar, who has been in the industry for over 30 years, penned a lengthy note in which he expressed his feelings about rejections, doubts, criticism, and other issues, assuring his younger self that it would all be worth it in the end.
Ajay captioned his post, which he shared with his 7.8 million Instagram followers on the occasion of #NationalYouthDay, with a few words for the 20-year-old Ajay, hoping ‘he appreciates it.’ Ajay wrote a note to the younger actor who was just starting out in Bollywood in the letter. He penned, “Dear 20-year-old me, There are making your mark in this new world as an actor… Let me be honest, you are going to face some brutal rejections. Shy and unconventional, you will try your hardest to fit in but fail… spectacularly! People’s criticisms and doubts will be hard, it’ll make you question your dreams. You will fail more than you will succeed.”
Ajay, on the other hand, assured his younger self that the journey would be worthwhile. He also advised his younger self not to ‘stop.’ He went on, “But spoiler alert, it’s all going to be worth it…because one day slowly but surely, you’ll realise, being yourself can be your greatest strength. So stumble a little but don’t stop. Keep pushing the boundaries and don’t let the world’s expectations turn into inhibitions. ” Always be true, always be you.” PS_ Learn how to dance and it’ll help you in the long run. Love, an older, wiser and better looking you.”
