    Tamil superstar Ajith Kumar is one of the few stars who maintains a low-key profile and has avoided public events and interactions at all costs. The actor, who is never even seen promoting his own films, has recently caught the attention of audiences with his new viral video, where he addresses his love for traveling and more.

    Thala Ajith's speech after years!

    Ajith Kumar's manager, Suresh Chandra, recently shared a video of the actor on his WhatsApp Channel, where the actor can be seen at a serene location somewhere in the northern part of India. In the speech, he emphasizes the concept of traveling and how important it is to break judgments. In the video, the actor can be seen interacting with people across different states where he has travelled, and says, “The idea is to get people to travel because I personally think travel is the best form of education. There's a quote that says that religion makes you hate people that you have never met before, be it religion or caste, whatever, which is so true,” the Vidaamuyarchi star says.

    He continues to express that traveling helps people empathize with others. He added, “I mean, we tend to judge people even before we have met them, but when you travel, I get to meet people from different nationalities and religions, and experiencing their culture makes you start to empathize with people. You start to become more empathetic to the people around you. It makes you a better person.”

    Fans hail Ajith

    The viral video has sent netizens into a frenzy, as it is the first time in many years that the actor has addressed his fans or the public and given a speech. Netizens, who have been circulating the clip online have been heaping high praise on the actor, for advocating peace and secularism. Some even shared a picture from his residence in Chennai, where near the nameplate, there is an image of all three religious symbols. Fans who cannot contain their joy about hearing their idol speak have been commenting: “What makes happiness?? This - AK front of Camera Off - Screen Speech.” Another user commented, “Thala Ajith just casually dropped a strong statement here. Real-life hero indeed!”
