Aamil Keeyan Khan is the man of the moment right now in Indian cinema. Basking in the love and praise he is receiving for his remarkable writing in the Ajay Devgn, R. Madhvan, Jyotika, and Janki Bodiwala starrer ‘Shaitaan’, the young, talented writer has tasted back-to-back successes with ‘Runway 34’, ‘Drishyam 2’, and now Shaitaan.
This can’t be denied. Aamil Keeyan Khan shares great love and respect for Ajay Devgn, who has also made his debut with ‘Runway 34’. Time and again, he has credited superstar Ajay Devgn as the man behind his success, and on the occasion of the superstar’s birthday, Aamil Keeyan Khan penned down a heartfelt note on social media, which says,
“Happy birthday to the OG of swagger on screen. I think that iconic image of you towering over two bikes at the same time as you enter into the frame could have very well been a declaration of the path you were going to take. Standing tall with your feet firmly planted in each genre. They said you wouldn’t work as a star. You gave them Phool aur Kaante. When it was cool for leading men to shout from their terraces about their love, you showed how loud an impact a silent lover could have as Vanraj in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (a name I deliberately chose in Shaitaan as a silent tribute).
They said you didn’t have comic timing. Your audiences laughed their way to the theatres and your producers laughed their way to the banks with the biggest comedy franchise of India, Golmaal. They said you’re too flamboyant a personality to play a common man. You hid all the flamboyance and stardom along with Sams dead body in Drishyam to play Vijay Salgaonkar. 2nd October has never been the same in India again.
When it rained blockbusters on you, you chose a Raincoat. You showed your strength as an actor through a Zakhm. In the same year, you did Legend of Bhagat Singh and Company… two characters that couldn’t be further apart. For every Sultan Mirza, there is an Omkara. For every Singham, there is a Gangaajal.
This is your year. The Maidaan’s all yours to shine. Auro mein koi dum nahin. May the Singham in you Raid and smash all the box office records. Tod Fod.
Aapko toh Shaitaan bhi Dua mein yaad rakhta hai. 😂😈😈😈
Much love,
Aamil”
Aamil’s fondness and respect for the bankable star Ajay Devgn are clearly visible in the post.
On the other hand, Ajay Devgn, who hits the ball out of the park with the smashing success of Shaitaan,is gearing up for the biggest Eid release, ‘Maidaan’ directed by Amit Sharma.
Meanwhile, Aamil Keeyan Khan, who has cemented his position as the commercially viable writer of Indian cinema, is busy writing his next films, and simultaneously, he is working on his first big-screen directorial, which will be announced soon.
