Ajit Kumar’s last film
Ajith Kumar was last seen in the action drama Good Bad Ugly. Directed by Adhik Ravichandran, the film tells the story of former crime boss AK, better known as Red Dragon.
After the birth of his son, the gangster decides to atone for his crime-filled past and serves an 18-year prison sentence. However, upon his release, he learns that his son has been framed for a crime he did not commit.
AK is then forced to return to his old ways to find out who targeted his son and clear his name once and for all.
Apart from AK, Good Bad Ugly stars Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Das, Sunil, Prabhu, Prasanna, Karthikeya Dev, Priya Prakash Varrier, Jackie Shroff, Shine Tom Chacko and many others in lead roles. The film is currently streaming on Netflix.
