Rang De Basanti- Ajay

Seen as an Air Force pilot Ajay Rathod in Rang De Basanti, this role of Madhavan was short but a highly impactful one. The actor shared screen space with the likes of Aamir Khan and others like Soha Ali Khan and Sharman Joshi. Madhavan truly looked dapper in his uniform and the “leather jacket” which his co-star Siddharth (Karan) raved about in the film.

Tanu Weds Manu Returns- An angry Manu

The return of Manu Sharma has been a dhamakedaar one indeed. Where, in the last film Madhavan was seen as the calm and composed lover to Kangana, in the sequel the actor was very different. Madhavan has given an epic performance in this film, where he is seen dealing with his eccentric ladylove Tanu and his budding feelings for her lookalike Kusum aka Datto.
