His performance was well received by critics, rediff noted "Ajay Devgn pulls up an ace with a part tailormade to reinforce his seething-under-the-surface angry hero image.

2006–09: Golmaal and other projects :

In 2006's he portrayed the character of Othello in Omkara, the Hindi adaptation of William Shakespeare's Othello. Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the film is a tragedy of sexual jealousy set against the backdrop of the political system in Uttar Pradesh. It premiered at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival and was screened at the Cairo International Film Festival. Omkara was received highly positive by critics,Rediff concluded about his performance"Othello is a tricky role, a leading man eclipsed by the villain. Yet the Moor is a brooding and compelling character, and Ajay Devgn does valiantly with his material. Omkara strips Othello of the racism, exchanging his black skin for surprisingly inconsequential half-Brahminism. Ajay's best bits are when restrained, and while there is a bit of a seen-that feel to his character, by the time the film is over, you realise just how unflinchingly solid he's been."Taran Adarsh Describe about his performance"Ajay makes a stirring and powerful interpretation of a man haunted by uncertainty about his lover's faithfulness. The serious look that Ajay carries suits him to the T. Of course, Ajay is exceptional in the film and looks every inch the character he portrays".

In same year, he starred in Rohit Shetty's Golmaal. The latter film was soon to be followed by two sequels Golmaal Returns and Golmaal 3. In the same year he also featured in a short documentary about the Mumbai floods of 2005 named The Awakening.

The film was a critical failure. He then starred in director Rohit Shetty's third film Sunday,

He next starred in his directorial debut film, U Me Aur Hum (2008) with wife Kajol. Upon release, the film performed moderately well at the box-office and earned positive critical reviews for his performance as well as for direction.Rediff concluded about his performance "his character grows, discovers both shirt-buttons and subtlety, delivering an intense acting job. Speaking almost entirely in platitudes – pithy at first, profound as he goes on – this grows into an extraordinarily well-written character, replete with flaws and relatability. The way he treats his remorse, drunkenly pointing every finger at himself around a dinner table, is superbly handled, as is his guilty struggle to delineate his life experience from his professional opinion".He also had a cameo appearance in his brother Anil Devgan's film Haal–e–dil. He starred in Afzal Khan's Mehbooba.

He then appeared in Rohit Shetty's comedy Golmaal Returns, the sequel to the 2006 film Golmaal: Fun Unlimited about a mistrustful wife who believed her husband was unfaithful. The Indian Express said the screenplay was derivative, concluding: "There is nothing particularly new about a suspicious wife keeping tabs on her husband, and there is nothing particularly new in the way Ajay-Kareena play it."Golmaal Returns was a financial success with global revenues of INR79.25 crore (US$12 million).

In 2009 he produced his third film All the Best also directed by Rohit Shetty. The film did good business[vague]. Later in the year he starred in Vipul Shah's London Dreams with Salman Khan and Tamil film star Asin. The film was declared a flop.

His performance was well received with critic Nikhat Kazmi

The same year, Devgn starred in Milan Luthria's Once Upon a Time in Mumbai which was among the top grossers of 2010.The film and Devgn's performance was well received by critics. Taran Adarsh noted " Ajay Devgn is splendid as Sultan. The actor had enacted a similar role in Company, but it must be said that his interpretation is so different in Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai. He adds so much depth to the character, which only goes to prove his range and versatility. This is, without a trace of doubt, Ajay's finest work so far". Another critics Komal nahta concluded "Ajay Devgn is simply fantastic in the role of Sultan Mirza. So real is his performance that it looks like he was born to play this role. Right from his look to his acting including dialogue-delivery, everything is fabulous. Indeed, an award-winning performance!".

He was then starred in Priyadarshan's action-thriller film, Aakrosh.The movie is based on the topic of honour killings.Aakrosh mostly garnered positive reviews from all critics but was a huge disaster at the box office.At the end of the year, he reunited with director Rohit Shetty for his sequel Golmaal 3 to the 2008 release Golmaal Returns.

He also featured in Rohit Shetty Singham. Taran Adarsh said about his performance "The title means 'Lion' and Ajay is in the centre of the battle between good and evil. The embodiment of screen masculinity, Ajay enacts the central character of a righteous, hardhearted cop with flourish. He brings alive on screen a larger-than-life hero character with determined conviction, which renders you thunderstruck. One of the few actors who underplays his part admirably, he returns to the over-the-top-action genre of films with this one. In a nutshell, his performance plays a pivotal role in carrying the film to the winning post.". He then starred David Dhawan's action comedy film Rascals.

In 2012, he featured in Tezz directed by Priyadarshan along with Anil Kapoor, Boman Irani, Kangna Ranaut, Sameera Reddy and Zayed Khan. Then he featured in Rohit Shetty's multi-starrer Bol Bachchan.

In a small interview Ajay Devgan said "I haven't seen watched Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. There is no particular reason why I haven't seen it yet. It's just that I haven't got the time. Not really. I hardly watch my films also. I have not seen a lot of my films."

Personal life :

Ajay Devgn began dating actress, Kajol, in 1994, while filming for Hulchul.Members of the media, however, labelled them as an "unlikely pair" due to their contrasting personalities.

Marriage was never discussed, but it was always imminent". They subsequently got married on 24 February 1999 in a traditional Maharashtrian style ceremony at the Devgn house.The wedding was subject to wide media scrutiny, as certain members of the media criticised Kajol's decision to settle down at the "peak of her career".Post marriage, there was news in the media claiming that Devgn didn't allow Kajol to work in films any more. However, it was later clarified by Kajol that instead of quitting films, she would cut down on the amount of work that she did.

Following his marriage, Kajol moved into his, and his parents, house at the latter's ancestral house in Juhu. While media members speculated about a lack of compatibility between her in-laws and her, Kajol clarified that they were "like parents to me" and encouraged her to continue working in films. Rumours have often romantically linked Devgn with other Bollywood actresses, and have reported about an imminent divorce. Refuting the rumours, Kajol stated, "I don't believe in those rumours because I know the way this industry functions. You cannot continue a marriage without the basic trust. Frankly, I don't care for such talk.
