Ajay Devgan’s Bhaukaal avatar is all set to once again showcase his charm on the big screen. Ajay Devgan’s super-cop avatar has been thrilling audiences on the big screen since 2010, bringing his character to life in Singham Again The story returns to the big screen again.
Ajay’s new film, also titled ‘Singham 3’, will hit theaters on November 1, on the occasion of Diwali. Kartik Aryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 will also be released in theaters on the same day. Kartik’s film is also part of Bollywood’s popular film franchise and the audience has a good vibe about it. But Ajay’s Diwali record cannot be discounted. how? Let us tell…
Ajay’s Diwali blast
While every Indian is inextricably linked with Diwali, Ajay Devgn’s relationship with the festival is quite special. Over the past 30 years, Ajay has created some of the biggest hits of his career on Diwali. Among them, some movies have always been fan favorites.
Jigar is the second film in Ajay’s career and it was released on Diwali. His film with Karisma Kapoor was released on October 23, 1992. Not only did it enjoy cult film status among Ajay’s fans, it was also a hit at the box office. The next year, Ajay once again graced the big screen on Diwali to entertain the public. But this time his movie “Bedardi” failed to create any miracles and failed miserably at the box office.
After this speed break, Ajay and Diwali’s whirlwind relationship began exactly 30 years ago in 1994. In November 1994, her film “Suhaag” with Akshay Kumar was released in theaters and fans loved the film. From here, the relationship between Ajay and Diwali begins to grow with great success.
After “Suhaag”, Ajay launched a total of 6 films on the occasion of Diwali, all of which were successful at the box office. These movies are:
2008- Golma Returns
2009-all the best
2010-Gelma 3
2012-Son of Sardar
2016-except
2017-Golma Again
Post-lockdown slowdown strikes again
After the lockdown ended in 2022, there was a small angry moment in Diwali and Ajay’s love relationship. Ajay’s comedy film “Thank God” starring Sidharth Malhotra is released in theaters. The film was one of the biggest flops of Ajay’s career. However, Ajay’s die-hard fans put the matter aside and said that Ajay is a supporting character and Siddharth is the protagonist. But that’s not the case… because if the movie was a hit, Ajay would be praised, right?
But, “thank god” aside, Ajay has failed only once during Diwali in the past 30 years. The same is true in the post-lockdown era, when audience behavior is very uncertain. If we look at the situation since 1992, out of Ajay’s 10 films that released during Diwali, only two (Bedardi and Thank God) failed at the box office. This means Ajay’s success record for Diwali this year is 80%.
Apart from Ajay in “Singham Again”, there are also names like Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Tiger Shroff, Kareena Kapoor and Deepika Padukone. That means there’s plenty of star power in this movie. The film is a mainstream Bollywood masala film and if released it will create a buzz not only in metropolitan cities but also in small theaters in remote areas. And with Ajay Devgn’s Diwali record, the film definitely has a big upper hand.
