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.
