One of the biggest names in the Tamil film industry, Ajith Kumar, has successfully completed 33 glorious years of his cinematic journey. Commemorating the milestone, the `Valimai` actor decided to look back at his incredible journey from being just an outsider with no film background to becoming one of the most loved actors in the South.
Ajith released a statement saying, "As I complete 33 years in this extraordinary journey called cinema, I do not pen this to celebrate. I don`t wait for landmark numbers as I believe that each passing year is a landmark year. I thank you all with a full heart and folded hands."
"This journey was never easy. I did not come from legacy or influence. I started from the outside, with nothing more than a will to try. Life, in its own way, tested me over and over through injuries, setbacks, failures, and silence. But I never stopped. I endured. I got back up. "And I kept moving forward," he added. Ajith further revealed that perseverance is not something he learnt, but something he lived.
