Ajay Devgan was so impressed with the story of 'Omkara' that he was keen to produce it himself . Somehow that did not quite work out and the Vishal Bhardwaj project passed on to his long-time secretary , Kumar Mangat .

However , at the shooting of the film , Ajay Devgan was very much the hands-on producer , taking care of all the stars , discussing the schedule for the next day , briefing the unit members and generally offering his services to everyone in the cast and the crew .

Watching Devgan so concentrated about the production details during the making of 'Omkara' , it is difficult to imagine that he was , after all , only an actor on the sets !
