Perspective
Ajmal made his acting debut with a cameo appearance in his friend's Tamil film, February 14 (2005).[6] His lead debut film was the Malayalam film Pranayakalam, opposite Vimala Raman in Malayalam. This was followed by the Tamil film Anjathe, directed by Myshkin, in which he played an angry young man.[2] The film became a commercial success, with Ajmal receiving several awards for his performance.[7] He next starred in the Malayalam film Madambi alongside Mohanlal. It remains his only hit in Malayalam aside from Loham and Two Countries.[8] In 2009, he has gone on to do Tamils films like TN 07 AL 4777 and Thiru Thiru Thuru Thuru. He also acted in an international production in Malayalam De Nova, which went unnoticed. The anti-hero character, Vasanthan Perumal, he portrayed in the 2011 Tamil movie Ko earned him a lot of appreciation. Based on an online poll conducted by The Times of India, Ajmal won the Chennai Times Film Award for Best Actor in a Negative Role Male.[9] In 2012, he made his debut in the Telugu film Rachcha.[10] His willingness to experiment and go beyond the image of the virtuous hero have garnered him a rich spectrum of characters from Tamil and Telugu.[11] In 2013, he played an independent cinematographer in the suspense thriller Bangles.[12] He also did in Karuppampatti (2013) and Vetri Selvan (2014), which for lack of good publicity, bombed at the box office.[13]
He also acted in the Telugu film Prabhanjanam (2014) in which he played the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.[8] In 2015, He hasn't done any major roles in Malayalam and was seen in guest roles in Loham and Two Countries.[14] In 2015, he acted in the Malayalam movie Ben. Since then he had not been active in Malayalam, until 2022 when he played a police officer in the movie Pathaam valavu. He then appeared in the Tamil movie, Iravukku Aayiram Kangal (2018). [15] In 2019, his Tamil films are also Chithiram Pesuthadi 2 and Devi 2. He is next seen in Nayanthara's film titled Netrikann (2021). He is also part of Malayalam movie Kshanam.[16] He has most recently been seen in Mangalavaaram.[17]
