When he joined the film industry people said, he would be a one hit wonder. His father being an action director, it wasn't difficult for him to take on movies that demanded him to fight some goons, and jump from buildings. However, as he settled down in the industry and delivered a few hits, he turned over a new leaf and stunned the audience with some really good top class acting. We are talking about Ajay Devgan.
Ajay is back in the spot light after a few bad films, he is now getting loads of praise for his role in Verma's Company where he plays this supercool gangster who talks it through his expressions and body language than hamming loud dialogues. He has really turned that role into gold, giving one of his best performances ever. And this is just the start of a year, which has Ajay coming up with some really new and fresh roles. He plays a seedha saadha guy in 'Chori chori', then the legendary freedom fighter Bhagat Singh and finally a masti-fun role in 'Hume kissise kum nahin' opposite Aishwarya. Finally, he has carved a niche for himself in an industry where survival is something that one faces ever friday.
Ajay Devgan did a lot of dhishum-dhishum maar-dhaad films in the initial phase of his career, and the audience knew it that after Sunny baba it was Ajay who excelled as the protagonist who wanted to seek law and justice, and sort it out his way. He was appreciated in action -oriented roles, mostly due to the stunts that his dad would get done from him. 'Phool aur kaante' was his first major hit, which gave him a star status. Later he had hits like 'Vijaypath', 'Suhaag', 'Dilwale', and also some major duds like 'Hulchul', 'Naajayaz', 'Jaan', and 'Itihaas'.
