“You can love him or hate him but you can’t ignore him” – this quote is best suited for the one known for his self confidence, passion and love for cinema, one who is not afraid to face even the Chief Minister, one who survived more than ten surgeries and is still trying to bring home the bacon, one of the very few gentlemen in Tamil cinema, one who is known for his hard work, and has been rightly brought to this world on May 1 – Ajith Kumar. Here are some of the best moments in his life – moments that we believe made him who he is now.
Aasai – 1995
It all started with this. His first breakthrough as a hero.
Kadhal Mannan – 1998
His first ‘commercial film’ per se. His first movie with Saran. After this flick, their combo made many epics.
Vaali – 1999
First film that proved his versatility as an actor and also the first film that got him the Filmfare award for Best Actor.
The holy knot – 2000
Behind every successful man, there is a woman. This woman entered our man’s life in the year 2000.
Dheena – 2001
Every hero has a nickname that fans bestow on him. Ajith got his name Thala from this movie.
Citizen – 2001
A milestone in his career and another film that proved his mettle.
Villain – 2002
His second Filmfare award for his over-the-top performance as a cripple.
Varalaru – 2006
His best performance till date and also the one that fetched him a Filmfare award.
Billa – 2007
“I’m back’’ – These words are more than enough for describing this Ajith flick.
“Anoushka” – 2008
Then came a little angel named Anoushka and everything went better than expected.
Fefsi Speech – 2010
The one speech that left politicians and everyone in the cinema industry speechless.
Fan clubs – 2011
First hero in Tamil cinema industry to dissolve his fan clubs considering the welfare of his fans.
ரசிகர்கள் கூட்டம் என்பது கடவுள் கொடுத்த வரப்பிரசாதம். இதை என்னோட சுயலாபத்திற்காக ஒரு நாளும் பயன்படுத்த மாட்டேன். ரசிகர்களை வைத்து பிசினஸ் செய்ய விரும்பவில்லை – அஜித் குமார்
Mankatha – 2011
His biggest opening till date, a visual treat for his fans all over, and of course a mile stone in his career.
Ajith’s life started as a two-wheeler mechanic. He then went on to become a racer, then a model, and he finally turned an actor in the year 1992. He is now a part-time pilot, part-time cook, an aircraft design engineer, a lovable husband, a wonderful father and what not! He has crossed many road blocks, but his fans have never lost faith in him and never will. Happy birthday Ajith!
