Ajit Khan

Ajit Khan

Ajit (Hindi: अजित), screen name of Hamid Ali Khan (born 27 January 1922 in Golconda, Hyderabad, died of cardiac arrest on 22 October 1998 in Hyderabad) was a Hindi film actor. He was always known as Ajit and never as Ajit Khan. Ajit, a popular villain of Bollywood movies, was known for his stylish and peculiar delivery of dialogue. His famous catch-phrases - "Mona darling, smart boy," "Lili don't be silly," "Mona loot lo sona (gold)" - became a rage. Ajit is also credited for starring as a lead actor in popular Bollywood movies such as Nastik, Bada Bhai, Milan, Bara-Dari, and later as a second lead in Mughal-e-Azam and Naya Daur, to name a few.
