Actor Ajay Devgn believes in being muscular and fit rather than running after six-pack and eight-pack abs that other actors have flaunted in their films.

"For 'Action Jackson', the makers wanted me to sport a bulky body, which was very easy for me to achieve.

"I believe six-pack and eight-pack abs make you weak. They look nice, but they can make you physically weak. I believe you should be muscular and fit. I don't want to promote eight-pack abs," Ajay said.

The actor, who's currently busy promoting his film "Action Jackson", says there is no buffoonary in the film.

"Prabhudheva is a very good actor himself and there is no buffoonary comedy in the film, and his comic timing is great. I enjoyed working with him," he said.

Directed by Prabhudheva, "Action Jackson" also features Sonakshi Sinha.
