The Vivek Oberoi & Ajay Devgan partnership
Between 2002 and 2006, they barely worked apart — 5 films in 4 years. For 4 years, a Vivek–Ajay film arrived almost every year. They saved their best for last — Omkara (7.6/10) came 4 years in.
From Company (2002) to Omkara (2006). The spanned closed with Omkara in 2006.
The shape of the work
Vivek Oberoi acted in every film; Ajay Devgan acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Ajay Devgn personally recommended Vivek Oberoi to Ram Gopal Varma for Company after they worked together on a smaller project. Varma was initially hesitant because Vivek was still a newcomer, but Ajay insisted he had the right 'edge' for the role of Chandu.
- In Company, Ajay played the cold, calculating Malik with minimal dialogue, while Vivek's Chandu was the volatile, talkative trigger. Vivek has said that Ajay's silence on set forced him to raise his own energy — he had to 'fill the space' Ajay left empty, which made their confrontations crackle.
- Their pairing in Masti (2004) accidentally launched a new sub-genre: the 'married man's horror-comedy'. The film's success directly inspired the 2007 hit Dhamaal and later the entire 'Golmaal' franchise tone — all because audiences loved watching Ajay and Vivek bumble through a haunted house together.
- During the shoot of Kaal (2005), Ajay and Vivek shared a room in the Jim Corbett forest lodge for three weeks. Vivek later revealed they'd stay up late playing chess and discussing scripts — and that Ajay once woke him up at 3 AM because he heard a tiger outside, only to laugh it off as a prank.
