Kiccha Sudeep talks about his Twitter spat with Ajay Devgn, feels a 'third person' was the mastermind

'Ajay Devgn is a gentleman. There is nothing there. I am telling you 100% there is a small misinterpretation there,' Kiccha Sudeep said in an interview 

Kiccha Sudeep talks about his Twitter spat with Ajay Devgn, feels a 'third person' was the mastermind

Kiccha Sudeep made headlines a few months ago for his online spat with Ajay Devgn over Hindi and its status as the 'national language.' In a recent interaction with Hindustan Times, the actor was asked if he and Ajay Devgn are ‘friends’ after their Twitter spat, to which Sudeep replied that Ajay is a gentleman and there was 100% a small misinterpretation.

"He tweeted to me but he was very sweet enough to retweet back and say ‘I got my answer Sudeep, thanks for clearing it up’,” he told the publication.

Ajay Devgn's first tweet to Sudeep was in Hindi, stating that it will always be our national language and mother tongue. Sudeep responded to his tweet in English and said that if he had tweeted in Kannada, Ajay would have likely not understood him. He further added that his statement wasn't to 'hurt, provoke or start a debate.'
Sudeep garnered a lot of support from fans and celebrities on this matter and many said that Ajay should have stuck to English for the conversation.

Addressing the issue, Sudeep said, “I am very sure the man I know would never tweet in Hindi. It’s definitely a third-person’s idea behind it. I do not want to know or conclude on that."

Sudeep reiterated that the war of words on Twitter happened due to a misunderstanding and he was only talking about Hindi's position as a dominant language. He mentioned that he doesn't have a fight against Hindi and his simple point was that pan-India shouldn't always mean Hindi.

"Just because you are making Hindi films does not automatically make it pan-India. Marathi, Kannada, Telugu, Punjabi, Tamil films are also becoming pan-India now. This is what I wanted to say. The debate at the time was that it’s our national language. It’s not but we love it still. He may be coming from there but this language belongs to us also. It belongs to us as much as it belongs to you,” he said.

Kiccha Sudeep is gearing up for his upcoming Kannada film 'Vikrant Rona' which will also release in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam. The film also stars Jacqueline Fernandez and is scheduled to release on July 28.
