Ek Ajnabee – A Man Apart () is a 2005 Indian Hindi-language action-thriller film directed by Apoorva Lakhia. The film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Arjun Rampal and Perizaad Zorabian. It is a remake of Tony Scott's Man on Fire, a film based on a novel of the same name, which was also adapted into another film in 1987.

It has all the necessary ingredients required for a movie to come out of India." Vipin Vijayan of Rediff.com said that the film "reinvents Vijay Dinanath Chauhan (Bachchan's very popular character in Agneepath)," and that the film has "a racy first" act but that it "loses steam in the second half."
