Ajith and Venkat Prabhu meet in Azerbaijan
Recently, the director and actor were spotted together in Baku, Azerbaijan, where Ajith has been shooting the last schedule for his upcoming film Vidaamuyarchi. Director Venkat Prabhu, who was also at the same place, took to his social media handles to drop a surprise pic with Thala Ajith and captioned it, “And this happened……… bromance in Baku.”
Mankatha, which released in 2011, marked Ajith’s 50th film in his career and went on to become one of the most iconic films upon its release. Interestingly, Ajith's co-stars for Vidaamuyarchi— Trisha and Arjun Sarja — had also starred in this 2011 blockbuster.
The now-viral pic has taken the internet by storm, with many fans speculating whether the actor will be making a cameo appearance in Vijay and Venkat Prabhu’s upcoming film The Greatest of All Time, while others speculate that the reunion might be for a potential new collaboration between the hit combo. Nonetheless, the new pic has fans jumping in excitement, who cannot wait to see them work on yet another project together soon!
