The ad has gone viral across various platforms, sparking a wave of memes and trolling from users. In a candid conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia, Ajay was asked about his reaction to people playfully mimicking his iconic tagline. Devgn responded calmly, acknowledging that the memes and online jests have no impact on him. When Allahbadia asked, "If you don't mind me asking, in this meme culture, if someone is saying, 'Zubaan Kesari,' how does your brain process it?" Ajay simply replied, "It's okay. It doesn't matter." 

Rohit Shetty shared his views on meme culture

In the same interview, Rohit Shetty also shared his perspective on the meme culture surrounding Ajay Devgn’s advertisements. He remarked, “I think it’s no longer offensive. Everyone enjoys memes now. It’s all about saying, ‘Did you see this meme?’” Ajay Devgn is not the only celebrity to face trolling, other brand ambassadors have also been criticised for promoting tobacco products, which some argue negatively influence the youth.

Recently, Tiger Shroff has joined the list of stars endorsing the brand.
