Ajay Devgn has had a fantastic career, which began with his film Phool aur Kaante, wherein he made a big statement about his arrival in Bollywood as a performer. Ajay Devgn has had many hits and success stories to tell. But one ever-lasting memory he has with him is the respect he has had for the veteran actor Amrish Puri. Ajay had his mentor Amrish Puri guiding him in Phool aur Kaante.

A video recently went viral wherein Ajay Devgn remembered his mentor very fondly and had some amazing words to tell about Amrish Puriji. “Amrishji is no more. But he is like a father figure to me. He is one of the nicest human beings I have ever known. Woh akele honge jinke pair main har subah choota tha. Industry main kisiko takleef ho, kisikey shaadi ho, ya kisike ghar main death hojaaye, pehle pahunchne wala aadmi woh hi the.”

Ajay Devgn even today feels blessed to have learned so much from the veteran actor!!

How sweet!!
