Ajith
Kumar
has
always
led
a
simple
life
and
prefers
to
stay
away
from
the
star
status.
Interestingly,
Ajith
recently
made
a
special
request
to
his
beloved
fans
and
media,
which
has
left
everyone
surprised.
The
Valimai
actor
requested
everyone
to
not
call
him
'Thala',
and
revealed
that
he
prefers
to
be
referred
to
as
Ajith
Kumar,
Ajith,
or
AK.
"To
The
respected
members
of
media
of
the
media,
public
and
genuine
fans.
I
henceforth
wish
to
be
referred
to

Ajith
Kumar,
or
just
AK
and
not
as
"Thala" or
any
other
prefix
before
my
name.
I

wish

all
a

Ajith," reads
the
Valimai
actor's
official
statement.
The
netizens
have
been
heaping
praises
on
Ajith
Kumar
for
his
decision
to
drop
all
prefixes
that
are
associated
with
stardom.
The
fans
and
well-wishers
point
out
that
it
is
extremely
rare
to
find
an
actor
with
such
a
personality,
especially
in
an
industry
where
even
the
newcomers
prefer
to
be
considered
as
stars
and
insist
on
using
prefixes
before
their
names.
To
the
unversed,
Ajith
Kumar
has
always
expressed
his
displeasure
over
being
referred
to
as
a
star.
The
Valimai
actor
similarly
requested
the
media
and
his
fans
to
not
any
prefixes
that
celebrate
his
stardom
earlier.
That
is
when
his
die-hard
fans
began
to
call
him
'Thala',
which
is
the
Tamil
word
for
the
leader.
Coming
to
the
work
front,
Ajith
Kumar
will
be
next
seen
in
Valimai,
the
H
Vinoth
directorial
which
has
been
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
as
a
Pongal
2022
special
release.
The
actor
is
expected
to
kickstart
his
next
project,
which
has
been
tentatively
titled
AK
16,
very
soon.
The
project
will
mark
Ajith's
third
collaboration
with
both
director
Vinoth
and
producer
Boney
Kapoor.
