Actors and couple, Kajol and Ajay Devgan flagged off Senior Citizens’ Run in New Delhi on Sunday morning, November 9, one of the four sporting events in the capital along with Half Marathon, Wheelchair Event and the Great Delhi Run.

The Senior Citizens’ Run was sponsored by ‘Harmony, ‘ a social initiative by Tina Ambani that focuses on the cause of promoting the community interest of senior citizens.

Other celebs like Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan, composer AR Rahman and Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit, boxer Vijender Singh and corporate biggie Rajan Mittal, came to support the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon this morning..

Ajay Devgan and Kajol were there to flag off the senior citizens’ run . Ajay said it was something he would never have turned down for anything. “It’s a great cause and it was a great feeling. The fact that it involved those from society who’ve given us so much and are at the stage of life where they need our support, makes it all the more important. Kajol feels the same way and that is why we both were here in Delhi for it,” he says.

Ask him if he would want his daughter Nysaa to be involved with something like this when she grows up and he says, “Even though she’s too small to understand what Kajol and I have done, but we make sure that the best of culture and values are given to her. It is very important to learn all this and we’ll leave no stone unturned to teach her.”

Ajay said that sports plays a very important role in an individual’s life. “Sports of all kinds create great harmony and unite people. I mean, look at this marathon – everyone from different walks of life is here. And yes, it is mentally and physically very healthy. I feel bad for kids who don’t get a chance to enjoy the world of outdoor games because they are inundated with too much technology in their homes. Technology is good, but nothing can beat outdoor games. I’m going to make sure my daughter is exposed to them.”

They are a busy couple. Ajay Devgan recently returned from London where he was on location filming for Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s London Dreams with co-stars Salman Khan, Urmila Matondkar, Asin and Lara Dutta.

Ajay Devgan’s Golmaal Returns, which was released in theatres on October 29, is reported to be doing extremely well at the box office, having grossed Rs 72 Crore in the opening week worldwide.

Kajol will start filming for Karan Johar’s My Name is Khan starting 15th of December in Los Angeles
