Unbelievable: Ajay Devgn Looking Better Than Salman?

Back in the 1990s, Ajay Devgn was never considered the ‘handsome’ hero. He was intense, serious and often teased for his looks.

People used to call him dull or plain looking. He was the quiet guy, always in the shadow of flashier stars.

Meanwhile Salman Khan was the heartthrob of the nation. Shirtless songs, gym body, killer charm — he was the definition of Bollywood stardom.

People adored him, copied him and dreamed of being him. At that time nobody — literally nobody — thought there would come a day when Ajay would be compared to Salman in terms of looks… let alone come out ahead.

A recent photo of Salman Khan took the internet by storm — but not in the way fans hoped. He looked visibly tired, aged and heavy.

The charm he once carried with ease now looked faded. What hurt fans more was his styling. Sloppy, mismatched and loud — social media didn’t hold back.

Comments poured in, calling him just another 60 year old grandpa. Others slammed his outfit, calling his dressing sense the worst in the industry.

And just as that wave of criticism hit, Ajay Devgn stepped out in a clean, sharp outfit. He looked fit, calm and confident.

There was nothing flashy about his look but it worked. He looked healthy and more importantly in control. The comparison started trending and fans couldn’t ignore the obvious contrast.

Ajay has aged gracefully. He never tried to act younger than he is. He picked films that suited his age, maintained a fit physique and carried himself with quiet dignity. No drama, no forced coolness — just consistency.

Salman on the other hand seems stuck in a loop. His style hasn’t evolved, his fitness has dipped and his overall energy looks low.

Even loyal fans began saying things like, “Bhai has mentally retired,” and “He’s living like a retired uncle now.” Some even said that at this point a proper comeback feels impossible.

What’s more surprising is how the perception has flipped. For years Salman was the style icon.

Today the same fans are expressing sympathy and disappointment. Ajay who was laughed at is now being called graceful and respectable.

It’s not just about appearance anymore — it’s about how both stars are handling time and change.In today’s world stardom isn’t just about being famous. It’s about being relevant, adapting and aging well.

Ajay seems to get that. He has accepted himself. Salman seems to be resisting change — and it’s showing.

Nobody in the 90s would have believed this. But in 2025 Ajay Devgn is looking sharper, healthier and more in sync with the times than Salman Khan.

It’s not just a glow up story. It’s a reality check. Sometimes the most unexpected comparisons end up revealing the biggest truths.
