"Saara Shaher Mujhe Loin Ke Naam Se Jaanta Hai," roared Ajit, the numero uno villain of the early 70s in Subhash Ghai's hit film Kalicharan. For the younger generation who do not recognize him can identify the stylish villain in Amitabh Bachchan starrer Zanjeer (who played Dindayal Teja) and in Dharmendra's hit film Yaadon Ki Baaraat (as Shakal). His other hit films include Dharma, Jugnu, Khote Sikkay, Warrant, Mr. Natwarlal, etc
Ajit's biggest contribution to cinema is his revolutionary, savvy gentleman style that he imparted to villainy, which for long had been typecast as loud and wild. Ajit's unique style became so popular that it became his trademark style till he breathed his last.
How Ajit invented this style is an interesting tale. In an interview, Ajit had revealed, "The character of Dindayal Teja which I portrayed in Zanjeer was actually inspired from a real-life personality.
