Ajith has been lying low till now. With AVM's 'Thirupati' he's back in form. The film started off with a song picturised in the 3rd level of AVM Studios, this morning. A curly haired Ajith had a blue shirt on and a pair of sunglasses. He was accompanied by his wife Shalini.
Producer AVM Saravanan welcomed them and the pooja started formally in the presence of a framed photograph of AVM Meyappa Chettiar.
After the pooja, director Perarasu shot a scene. There was a sudden flurry of movement and who should drop in but Ilaya Dalapathy Vijay! He hugged and shook hands with Ajith as the gathering looked on in approval. As the photographers crowded in to catch the moment, the 2 of them put their arms on each other's shoulders and posed for them.
After Vijay took leave, the film unit came outside to the dais. Near Ajith were heroine Sada and wife Shalini and cameras worked like crazy. The fans surrounding the area burst into excited chatter. Ajith showed them the thumbs up sign and went back inside.
There was a jeep and bike nearby with sound equipment and 'Dala' got on to it and gave different poses. We begged the director to at least give us a hint of the story. "Named Thirupati, Ajith runs a sound service centre. The film is a mix of love, sentiment, friendship and valor," he responded briefly.
After the pooja, Bharadwaj also tuned a song to lyrics written by the director himself as Ajith looked on in enjoyment.
"Thirupati vandaa thiruppam
Theepori pola iruppom
Unakku mela enakku mela yaaru paaradaa
Unnai ennai vaazha vacha saamidhaanadaa"
TV and newspaper media chased Ajith, but the man did not open his mouth!
