Though

go
gaga
over
him
after
his
first
picture
from
the
sets

Philanthropy
During

During
the
first
wave
of
the
COVID-19
pandemic,
Ajith
extended
a
helping
hand
towards
his
people,
when
they
needed
their
Thala
the
most.
The
Tamil
star
donated
a
whopping
Rs
1.25
crore
towards
various
Coronavirus
relief
funds.
Reportedly,
the
actor
has
also
been
providing
financial
help
silently
to
the
needy.
Thala
At
His
Best
During
COVID-19
Days
after
the
Prime
Minister
of
India
Narendra
Modi
announced
a
21-day
lockdown
to
control
the
spread
of
the
deadly
Coronavirus,
Ajith
and
his
team
Dhaksha
stepped
out
of
their
homes
to
help
the
government
battle
the
virus.
Under
his
guidance,
the
team
of
students
from
IIT
Madras
designed
a
drone,
that
helped
Tamil
Nadu's
health
department
to
spray
disinfectants
over
the
red
zones,
where
the
deadly
virus
was
prevalent.
Interestingly,
the
higher
capacity
drone
could
carry
16
liters
of
disinfectant
and
cover
one
acre
in
30
minutes.
The
humanitarian
activity
of
the
superstar
won
the
hearts
of
many,
who
couldn't
stop
but
share
overwhelming
words
of
appreciation
on
social
media,
which
indeed
proved
why
the
superstar
is
South's
beloved
Thala.
