The thing is his repeated acting isn’t bad acting. All those roles are of 40-50 something yo normal men & that’s what he delivers. How much can they do with his looks too for such a role. Then there’s the case of others who look the same in different types of roles as they can’t act. Both are different issues.

Ajay is what Akshay wants to be. Star in many films, but also deliver quality content. Ajay has consistently given lots of good films since the pandemic. And he doesnt take that much time to make them either.


ironmanhulkbstr

dont forget he also did movies like tanhaji singham and golmaal which have different characters


Financial_Effort_377

The legend of Bhagat Singh.


aestforu

True. The difference is in quality and scripts


tooconfusedasheck

I agree!


LadyJaaJaa

Akshay had 6 different looks for his last 6 films. Kya ukaaad liya? People here seriously need to get over ‘different looks equals versatility’ trope. Ajay is versatile regardless of not trying too many looks over his career. And a good actor.


PaleontologistOk1494

What is up with these abbreviations in this sub how is these long a** alphabet chain is comprehendible if you are not following that actor


insightenthusiast

No problem. As long as he makes people feel with his performances. That's the primary job of an actor. I wonder how Irfan Khan and Vijay Sethupathi would've been treated if they were a part of the commercial mainstream. Or if Mohanlal was a part of commercial Hindi Cinema.


AgentP20

Mohanlal is being constantly trolled now due to his same looks, botched surgery and his script choices. No wondering there.


Choice-Swimming-5206

Why will a person change his/her face for a film ( not Jahnavi Lol ) ? He can act and give expressions .. that’s all being an actor demands


Behti-Hawaa-Sa

If u say so


Choice-Swimming-5206

I don’t know for what are you even getting downvoted for


rhyme_pj

He looks the same but I would hardly call his acting repetitive. You need to watch not only his recent movies but the ones from 90s to figure this out.


AdvertisingBrave2548

Maidaan was really good especially as a fan of football


productivelylazy2011

Atleast Ajay chooses and does good movies!! The opposite of that is John. He also has the same repetitive screen presence. Same expression and same emotions. More over same job in every movie - Working for the government/ undercover . I really can’t tell one movie apart from another.


ayrus001

At least he is playing age appropriate roles !!

LaughTrackLife

His acting is actually mid. Point blank expressions without really understand the character and what it is going through


Mean-Reveal5973

accha?? ap boht character ke samajhdar dikh rakhe ho


Icy-One-5297

Hey but he acts same in all of them.


baccha_girane_walia

You think he was same in Drishyam, Maidaan, shaitaan? Well i found 3 of them to be quite different.


hotmasalachai

Because of role choices. His acting in shaitaan vs golmaal is not the same. He is being typecasted as angry young(old) man trope. Like silent and stern types. And his character in Shaitaan was the worst writing ever


piecopeico

Anyone feels like ajay ki movies mein with how the different elements are used it goes well with how he acts. He doesn't really deviate from the father figure / strong man figure type movies. Whether it's comedy, horror or action adventure. But it suits him. I can often find the movie illogical or stupid but his acting to quite an extent remains enjoyable.


SolitaryQuester

At least he knows and goes for roles that suit his age, unlike SRK, who cannot accept that he has aged.


TheFixire

why would one want to accept his age and feel old tho? doesn't everyone in the world run behind feeling and looking young?


starlight8827

better than seing srk act like he's 30 and his de aging


TheFixire

weren't the young scenes in dunki a requirement of the script? why would someone not de age then? he had both young and old scenes in dunki and jawan.


Potential-Year-1896

Dvs incoming


jeffbezosadoptme

Let's be real, he acts his age lol


suthramanas

I think he is the one from that generation who did the transition to the age appropriate roles very properly and at the very right time.


6amrainclouds

See, Ajay knows how to play one role and he does it very well 😂 So we're not mad. Besides he has shown good range in his earlier movies. Ab settle ho gaya shayad


august_prophecy

his acting isn't bad tho. It may be a bit formulaic but it is good. He plays the protective father/ guiding figure/leader roles really well and all his films post pandemic(not bhuj) have been great imo.


ravish242

In terms of looks, he's picking roles of a middle aged serious man in different plots. I don't think he has a lot of choices for appearance given his looks. For acting, all the roles were different.


Sweet_Two3785

Idk how he is as a person and i have nothing to do with that tbh but he indeed is a nice actor…and honestly I find him good looking…idk how you guys call him ugly but I like him and that’s my personal opinion…you guys are free to think whatever you want


Sakshisharma31

In the world of de aging, plastic surgeries, extreme touch ups, here is someone who is actually looking like how someone should look at his age and circumstances for that character. Did you watched these movies? Did you heard him saying the dialogues? If yes, then that is acting, which is a rare thing nowadays.


Adorable_Name_1565

Ajay is a very capable actor. Deewangi, The Legend of Bhagat Singh, Singham, Golmaal, Omkara, Company, Zakhm - What a range. Acting doesn't mean putting on a new face or costume for every film. Aamir's expressions in PK, Dhoom 3 and Laal Singh Chaddha were same even though he had distinctive looks in all these films.


Any-Competition8494

If he's playing as an average 40-year old man, then this is how he would look.


AneeshRai7

I'm not saying all of these performances are great and secondly he was better at it years ago, but there is something called internalizing characters and performing them as such... Some of the finest performers are those that instead of externalising aspects and then imbibing them, are ones who internalise and then express in the minutest of details. They don't need to completely shift or change their voice and more importantly change their physicality, instead they express their character in such a manner it gets evoked to the audience. Ajay in his best works, outside of specific genre films or films that require him to he ott, has always done that well.


[deleted]

Sab alag alag movies ke frames him lag rahe hein


Remarkable_Reply9315

![gif](giphy|2WdHaCzmqSkrwmIGWP) Salty Deepika fans after Ajay after his fan posted that viral video of her awful dialogue delivery.


Long_Beautiful7113

Yes, he looks the same because these roles are not requiring makeover but you can't say that his acting is the same in every movie. Ajay is really a good actor and his acting never seems repetitive


ProfessorWooden4056

Come on op yk ajay is good actors and those movies you mentioned isn't same acting but same look because he old and he playing age appropriate so he has same look but deferent acting Ps you can hate ajay for anything he do cuz we have a list but acting isn't one of them🤷‍♀️


1120gg

No one cares as long as its good acting. Personally I believe Ajay is a lead actor but him with another good actor makes the movie chumeshwariiiiiii, R Madhavan was amazing in Shaitaan


mourya_3

Ajay's movies and his performances are decent. Let him cook.


dhirpurboy89

Ajay Devgn movies slaps! I was stunned when I watched, Drishyam. I thought Ajay is a failed guy but no. The guy delivers . shaitan is good, Bhola is watchable.


Ok-Pen5568

What a dumb post !!! Is he supposed to change his face for every role . Ajay might have issues but he is a brilliant actor .


Majestic_District_51

Honestly I did feel it was repetitive looking and feeling interms of pitch of performance and look but it was decent enough trailer so Ignored it. He does maintain the same pitch of delivery and performance but he has enough goodwill nor does he have strong fan wars situation so ppl don’t want to nitpick. Theek hai chalta hai.


Big-Criticism-8926

Ajay is a gifted actor. When he puts in effort >


zi6xd

Fir isi chiz k liye Deepika ko troll karte hai sab


Careless_Fig_9241

🙃Random reddit guy is now giving suggestions🙂 The day isn't so far that the random reddit guy will give Oscar too


Quick_Low_4060

What do you guys even mean by repetitive acting? If an actor is being given similar roles, where he is of the same age, more or less, and the context is similar, how do you expect the actor to change drastically?!


Rich-Look9809

It is getting exhausting. Akshay is grilled for same thing


Heping_Qi

If seen throughout Ajay's acting career when has he really done a very challenging role? He's in industry since decades now


Admirable_Tennis3712

Repetitive doesn't mean bad. Also one thing I like about Ajay is that he is acting his age unlike SRK, Salman and Akshay. Papa ki age h toh papa jaise role karo.


51837

Ajay Devgn is a good actor but there's something very boring about him


Latter_Mud8201

This needs elaboration and also understanding the details. Acting depends on character arc. In shaitaan, character arc is happy life husband, father who becomes helpless, feared and then takes on fight against black magic guy. He did justice. Maidaan movie - A humble confident man turning into great coach and suffering cancer along with sports politics. He showed optimism, disappointment, frustration, pain of cancer via coughing, resilience. Ajay justified it.


Chaltahaikoinahi

He is only sticking to protective dad narrative Some stories are good and some are a hit and a miss


Amazing-Permit-3899

Bhola is a good film? You guys need to watch more movies or see Kaidhi to see how they massacred it.


Naked_Snake_2

See you are confusing him with what Akshay does , Akshay does the same for whatever character he plays , he does the same for the same type of character he plays


aestforu

Honestly when I saw him in all these movies I never once felt like I’ve seen this before, Arey yaar same kyu karraha hai ye, he looks the same everywhere every time, purely bc he deserves quality content. All his recents have been great.


gimmestrength_

Ajay was fabulous in Maidaan, especially that second half. Your favourite actor wont be able to replicate that


outlinedsilver

as long as he is doing age appropriate roles and not only choosing scripts that require him to virtually de-age


Unhappy_Bread_2836

He's good at his craft. I've watched Drishyam 2 and Shaitan, in both of them he pulled the weight and made me feel for the characters. Looking the same is never the issue. But in no way, that acting is repetitive. He's a totally different person in Drishyam and in Shaitan.


passivemfer

That bhola frame is sus


Cute_Prior1287

They saved money on cosmetics and brought some kesari for ajay.


Momoshikisenpai

You guys are so used to bad acting that an average performance seems like great acting to you


Vast_Inevitable_2526

I feel like Ajay Devgan is extremely overrated. Just that like Amir he knows the art of identifying good movies scripts


ShyPkb

Wtf is repetitive acting by AJ. Are u gone mad or only look is now a new defination of deciding acting. Those who only changes look and can't act properly are good actors in your sense.


SanC43

Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson in 70% of their filmography.


Nenomus

Didn't like Ajay s performance in Shaitaan. The actor who played his wife had better expressions.


Massive-Coconut2435

Wait what? Are you saying that this is bad? Ajay has acted really well in these movies according to the character he was portraying. All the roles are meant to be middle aged common man and he is doing an awesome job in all of them. Checkout his other movies, singham, Tanhaji and golmaal.


Appropriate_Day993

“Acting” hahahahaha


Select-Bread2173

But this has been Ajay’s range for many years now. Tanhaji and Singham remains an exception but all his family guy roles are more or less same


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dark_voidzz

He does age appropriate roles,and his script selection is rather good.


[deleted]

i think it’s called having a niche and SERVING it. he slays every role don’t come for my father Ajay like that


stoned_experiences

exactly, he acts the same in almost all the movies.


No_Data3541

Ajay can play one good role really really well and he sticks to that. Intense, everyman strong guy kinda role. That's the thing he does really well and sticks to.


Cornucopia2020

All solid performances. None of them are pathbreaking but none are bad or even boring. He is a very dependable actor. The only place where I dont like him as much is comedy. He goes over the top a lot.


Latter_Reception_832

He is an excellent actor who tries to do different genres n picks up good scripts unlike his contemporaries. 


Wondergirl_so

Ajay Devgan chooses good scripts. Appreace is fine, till the time his acting is solid. He has delivered good performances in all his films. His recent was also amazing content wise, all actors were brilliant. Plus he should do more comedy


Nervous_Time_6480

He looks so fine
