Hamid started his career as a junior artist, who used to stand in the crowd. He did small roles in movies such as 'Kurukshetra' (1945), 'Patanga' (1949) and 'Jeevan Saathi' (1949), where he is credited in his real name, Hamid Khan. It was Mahesh Bhatt’s father, Nanabhai Bhatt, who gave him a break as a lead actor in a movie. It was also Nanabhai who gave the name Ajit because Hamid Ali Khan was too long.
