Ajith Kumar began his career with a small role in the Tamil film En Veedu En Kanavar (1990) before rising to stardom.
He is a passionate racer and has competed in international events, including the 2003 Formula Asia BMW Championships and the 2010 Formula 2 Championship.
Ajith dropped out of school in the 10th grade to pursue his interest in mechanics and even trained for six months as a mechanic before entering films.
Apart from racing, he is fond of aero modeling and pets, hobbies he has invested time and money into.
Despite his superstar status, Ajith is known for his humility and often avoids public appearances outside of his film commitments.
His father, P. Subramaniam, hails from a Tamil Palakkad Iyer family in Kerala, while his mother, Mohini, is Sindhi from Kolkata—giving him a diverse cultural background.
Ajith is admired by fellow actors like Arun Vijay, Dhanush, and Simbu, who look up to him as a mentor and role model.
