No one expected fight master Veeru Devgan's son Ajay to become a star when he debuted with Phool Aur Kaante in 1991. He was competing with the likes of Aamir Khan and Salman Khan, fresh from the success of Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, and Maine Pyaar Kiya respectively.
The actor went through his share of forgettable action films before he established his credentials in Mahesh Bhatt's Zakhm, that won him the National Award in 1998.
Then, he stole the thunder from Salman with his brilliant performance in Bhansali's Hum Dil De Chuke Hai Sanam (1999) with Ash.
Ajay and Ash came together again in David Dhawan's Hum Kisise Kum Nahin and Rajkumari Santoshi's Khakee.
Raincoat will be their fourth film together.
