Ajay Devgn could also be known for his intense screen presence, but he’s equally famous for his mischievous pranks on set. Through the years, co-stars and crew members have often spoken about his playful side, calling him a “silent troublemaker” for the calm and convincing way he pulls off his jokes. Whether faking technical issues, staging impromptu reshoots, or teaming up with director Rohit Shetty to trick newcomers through the Golmaal shoots, Ajay has at all times kept the atmosphere light and fun. Nevertheless, there was a time when considered one of his pranks went out of hand and sideways causing a lady to take a drastic measure.
For the unversed, actors like Kareena Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra have also shared stories of being pranked by him, adding to his repute as someone who balances his professionalism with an ideal humorousness. Ajay’s pranks are much more memorable because he never breaks characters, pulling them off with a straight face and leaving everyone second-guessing what’s real.
The Raid 2 star once, in an interview with Mid-Day [via India Today], shared a throwback story when considered one of his pranks went fallacious and out of hand. It was on the wife of considered one of his co-stars, who had recently married. Ajay Devgn recalled, “We used to shoot at night. She would obviously meet her husband within the mornings. We’d keep feeding the wife that her husband is having an affair. And that, within the night, he goes off somewhere. There are not any night shoots! I’d tell her that I return to my room at 10.30 [pm].”
Although the lady was aware of Ajay Devgn’s playful and prankster nature, she fell for his joke. He was so convincing at making a doubt in her. The Raid 2 actor recalled, “She’d tell me that she’s heard all about [my pranks]. That she trusts her husband. This carried on for eight days. On the ninth day, we woke up and learnt that she had actually taken pills, needed to be rushed to the hospital. She’d been fighting along with her husband over this, throughout, checking with him on what the hell he’d been as much as!”
On the skilled front, Ajay Devgn is about to return as Amay Patnaik in Raid 2. It features Riteish Deshmukh and Vaani Kapoor in key roles besides Ajay. The film will hit the screens on May 1.
