Ajay Devgn, who Ajay Devgn, who  toplines Golmaal  franchise and will next be seen in “Total Dhamaal”, fails to understand why comedy films are labelled “brainless” as he believes it requires intellect to create funny content. The 49-year-old actor said comedians rule the entertainment business across the globe. “I don’t know why they say it is brainless. It is not easy to make people laugh. Today in our country or all over the world, comedians are the biggest stars. Like here in India, we have Kapil Sharma. It needs intelligence to make people laugh, you just can’t make faces and make people laugh,” Ajay told PTI. “Who doesn’t want to laugh? Also, comedy films you can watch again and again. I don’t mean that other (kind) of cinema is not great but this is also good,” he added. Ajay is the new addition to Indra Kumar’s Dhamaal franchise, which was earlier headlined by Sanjay Dutt. The actor said he decided to come on board as he found the script “hilarious”. “When I heard the script it was very funny. Every scene is a laugh riot. Such films do not have depth of story but you are meant to have fun. And it is funny.”He said his approach towards every film is same — be it a commercial entertainer or a content driven story.
