Ajith Kumar or Thala Ajith is one mass hero we cannot help but admire. But what makes him the phenomenon that he is today? Well, aside from his rebellious conduct, Ajith’s popularity can also be attributed to a score of factors like alpha macho-ism, raw magnetism, biker lifestyle, and elite film choices. However, despite maintaining a low personal front, the actor has courted numerous unwarranted controversies in his long-standing career that have also made the superstar turn his back on the showbiz industry. This one time, Ajith was at the center of public criticism, which forced him to express his desire to refrain from appearing in front of the camera. Scroll below to know the entire episode.
Ajith is one of the most sought-after faces of Tamil Cinema and pulls a huge crowd to the theatres with his every outing. The first choice of every producer, the mass hero’s electrifying screen presence captivated the audience to theatres in flocks, making Thala a true blue superstar of his territory.
Being public figures, the audience often expects actors/actresses to address issues related to public interests. But they fail to recognize that no matter how powerful their voice is, celebrities are not here to lead political movements for they are entertainers who earn their bread by working in movies, songs, and galas. Echoing similar sentiments, Thala Ajith once asked then Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu M Karunanidhi to ensure that stars are not forced to support public agitations. Rather than settling the dust, his remarks invited a flurry of staunch criticism, with the actor facing calls to boycott.
