<span class=normal>Ajay Devgn killed in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai and Company<br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>At least at a theme level, Ajay Devgn had a similar part to play in both Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai and Company. Playing the biggest underworld don of all times, he was powerful, supreme and trusted a much younger man (Emraan Hashmi and Vivek Oberoi respectively) by turning him into his second in command. He lived like a king till his last breath and every spoken word of his was adhered to. However, he did die in the end and it was the very man whom he trusted most that led to his downfall. Was the audience shocked in both the films? Oh of course yes. It was all too sudden and even though one did expect a heroic act from Devgn in the last minute that would make him live on (despite him carrying negative traits), the writer as well as director in both films didnt oblige and got him killed. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Why did the films still succeed? Well, the reason is simple. In case of Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, it only led to the greed of seeing something more unfold in this story. With Emraan Hashmi picking up reins, the film ended on a high as a sequel was pretty much on cards, something that one cant expect in Dum Maaro Dum with Rana Daggubati going back to strumming guitars. As for Company, Ram Gopal Varma had smartly made Vivek Oberoi into a very strong anti-hero which means it was always on the cards that he would take revenge upon Devgn. There was no this way or that way once Oberoi announced - Tu Aur Teri Company Khallas. Well khallas he did and that too in style! <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>To summarise the golden rules<br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p> - When it comes to Bollywood, a hero cant die<br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p> - Even if he dies, he has to get his job done before he breathes his last<br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p> - And if he indeed dies without getting the job done, there has to be a stronger hero to take his place and do the needful!</span>
