Amrita Rao & Ajay Devgan Movies Together List — 4 Films

The shape of the work

The 2000s account for 75% of everything they made together. The 2000s belonged to The Legend of Bhagat Singh; the 2010s to Satyagraha. Amrita Rao acted in every film; Ajay Devgan acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• Ajay Devgan personally recommended Amrita Rao for the role of his love interest in Masti (2004) after seeing her in Ishq Vishk. The director Indra Kumar had initially considered other actresses.
• In Shikhar (2006), Amrita Rao played the calm, grounded love interest to Ajay's ambitious, reckless character. She said in an interview that Ajay deliberately kept his performance intense and loud so her quiet reactions would stand out more.
• During the shoot of The Legend of Bhagat Singh (2002), Amrita was nervous about her first scene with Ajay. He calmed her down by cracking jokes between takes and even shared his lunch with her every day on set.
• Amrita Rao once said: 'Ajay sir has this ability to make you feel like you're the only person in the room. On the sets of Masti, he'd whisper the next line to me if I forgot it, so no one else would know.'
• Their pairing in Masti (2004) was so well-received that it directly led to the film's sequel, Masti 2 (2006), though Amrita did not return. The original's success also revived the sex comedy genre in Bollywood for a few years.
• In Satyagraha (2013), their only film together where they didn't play love interests, Amrita played Ajay's daughter-in-law. She later revealed that Ajay insisted on rehearsing their emotional confrontation scene 12 times before the final take, something he never did with other co-stars.
