Georgekutty Ajay Devgn started out as an orphan who had dropped out of school after the 4th grade, but he built a life as a shrewd cable television entrepreneur in the small village of Rajakkad. He is married to Shriya Saran and goes by the nickname Rani in the family circle; together they raise two daughters, Anju and Anu. Outside of family life, his passion is cinema—he spends most of his days in front of the TV in a modest office, weaving film plots in his head and winning the respect of the locals with his easygoing wisdom and storytelling flair.
