Other actors prise Thala

Ajith appears to be a hot favourite, loved by one and all. The latest to join the bandwagon of Ajith’s celeb fan club is none other than Ilayathalapathy Vijay’s mother, Shoba Chandrasekar.

Vijay and Ajith teamed up way back in 1995 in the budding stage of their careers  in Rajavin Paarvayile. Vijay’s mother Shoba used to send food for both her son Vijay and also to Ajith routinely.

Thala Ajith is courteous enough to remember her nice gesture even now and reports say he makes a mention of it to Vijay’s mother without fail whenever they meet up in public meets or events. Behindwoods.com reports that Shoba recalled this in a recent interview and also said that she likes Ajith a lot.

English-Vinglish fame Sridevi Kapoor, the yesteryear beauty queen had recently expressed her desire to work with Ajith, if at all Tamil films come her way as she finds Ajith to be a thorough professional and a delight to work with. ‘Thala’ had done a cameo in the film English Vinglish without charging even a rupee.

Last year, Simbu had said that he always loved and admired Ajith. Simbu had called Thala a nice human being and liked the way he carries himself onscreen.

Vijay and Ajith are said to be good friends off-screen. Lauded as a gentleman by co-stars, Ajith had said in an interview to TOI that his wife Shalini and Vijay’s wife Sangeetha bond very well and that their kids also get to spend time together.

Ajith appears to have a fan in Bollywood too. King Khan of Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan has been good friends with Ajith ever since they shot for film Asoka, produced by Shahrukh Khan. Shahrukh Khan has always been an admirer of Thala as a wonderful actor and speaks  warmly of him. Shahrukh Khan has also followed Ajith’s Paramasivan hairstyle of matted locks  tied up in his film, Don 2.

Shahrukh had said that he is in awe of Ajith and added that only he could do a role with a negative shade as in Mankatha, that too in a mature look with salt and pepper hair.

Director Vijay had asked Ilayathalapathy Vijay recently to mull over working with Thala together in a film. Vijay had then said  that it depends on the directors and the script.
