Ajith Kumar's film Good Bad Ugly (GBU) has premiered in theaters. Directed by the self-proclaimed admirer Adhik Ravichandran, the movie showcases the director's deep admiration for his idol. For those who have seen GBU and wish to explore some of Ajith Kumar's most iconic cult films that are referenced in GBU, several of these titles are available on OTTplay Premium.

Vaalee 

In the film Vaalee, Ajith Kumar skillfully portrayed two identical twins with distinctly different personalities. Directed by SJ Suryah, he took on the roles of both the hero and the villain, sharing the screen with Simran, who also appears in Good Bad Ugly. Ajith's character is a man who falls in love and marries, only to bring his wife into the peril posed by his twin, who harbors an inappropriate desire for his sister-in-law. Good Bad Ugly features a special homage to Vaalee, where Ajith not only revisits his villainous traits but also rekindles his on-screen chemistry with Simran, who plays Priya.

Billa 2 

Billa 2, directed by Chakri Toleti, serves as a prequel to the original film Billa and is categorized as an action drama. The story revolves around Ajith, who portrays the infamous gangster David Billa, a man who has established his own criminal empire from the ground up. The film includes numerous dialogues that have been referenced in GBU, where Ajith's character is recognized as a don in Malaysia, previously known as Billa before his transformation into AK. Additionally, viewers are treated to a nostalgic glimpse of Ajith in the classic all-black suit and sunglasses, which are emblematic of the Billa character.

Dheena 

Dheena, helmed by AR Murugadoss, played a pivotal role in establishing Ajith as an action hero. It was during this film that the actor acquired the nickname Thala, a title he later requested not to be used. In GBU, Ajith is depicted in his Dheena outfit, evoking memories of his earlier career, all without the aid of de-aging technology.

Mankatha 

Mankatha, directed by Venkat Prabhu, marks Ajith's 50th film and is unforgettable for many. Its theme music and Ajith's compelling anti-hero performance have solidified its status as a favorite among his fans. In GBU, Trisha's character Ramya, reflects on how AK murdered her father by pushing him from a car, echoing a similar incident from Mankatha where the anti-hero committed the same act.

Red

Red is a commercial action film directed by Singampuli, who has gained fame as a comedian. In this film, Ajith's brief yet impactful dialogue, 'adhu,' gained significant popularity. The term was also featured multiple times in GBU.
