Before we start talking about Ajay Devgn, we need to talk about a little anecdote that was given to Shahid Kapoor by his debut director Ken Ghosh while shooting for Ishq Vishk. The director said to the actor, "If people don't like you in the first two minutes, they won't like you for the rest of the film." The introduction of a hero in Hindi Cinema pretty much decides how the audiences would gaze at the film and his character. In cases of enormous stars that have immense commercial clout, it supersedes the narrative they occupy.
Right from Superstar Rajinikanth to Amitabh Bachchan to Salman Khan, fans wait for their characters to be introduced in as heroic way as possible. How larger a life can get? But apart from all of these performers, it's Ajay Devgn who has almost reinvented and set the bar higher for a hero's entry. We all have been talking about his performances ever since he has made his debut, but he isn't just a robust actor but also a resounding star with immense commercial clout.
