''IT WAS SUCH A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH AJITH''

We have started a birthday campaign for Thala Ajith, and we are bringing in exclusive quotes from directors who have worked with the Vedalam hero. Yesterday, we spoke to ace cinematographer/director Santosh Sivan and Ramesh Khanna, who spoke about their experiences working with Ajith.

Today, we bring you what Ajith's Pagaivan director Ramesh Balakrishnan had to tell about him. He shares, "While doing Pagaivan, Ajith was a very young lad, and even then, he was a great human being, who likes to help people around. He is frank, kind-hearted and dedicated towards his profession.

He was parallelly shooting for Kadhal Mannan, alongside Pagaivan. He shot for Kadhal Mannan during nights and Pagaivan during the day time. During one such instance, we were shooting a song sequence at Ennore and while shooting, Ajith fainted and fell down. We immediately thought of packing up, but Ajith took rest for five minutes and helped us resume the shoot. We finished the song shoot then. It was such a memorable experience working with him."

Stay tuned to this space to check out for tomorrow's birthday special article! Exciting articles coming up every day!
