Spellbound by the stunt

Ajay Devgan’s eye-catching stunts have won him many admirers and the latest to join this bandwagon is Tollywood director S S Rajamouli.

Rajamouli, who has given major blockbusters in his career as a director, has directed the hit Southern film Maryada Ramanna — of which Son of Sardaar, Ajay’s next, is a remake.

The director happened to see Ajay’s action sequence in the film on television and was completely spellbound by it. And when he learnt that Devgan and team were shooting in Hyderabad for Himmatwala, he specially went over to greet him and congratulate him on the marvellous stunt.

Rajamouli is also a great fan of Ajay Devgan’s father — veteran action director Veeru Devgan ’s — work. The two chatted for hours, discussing various aspects of the film.
