Finding peace in speed in Dubai
Ajith Kumar
Tamil superstar Ajith Kumar has opened up about his decision to move from Chennai to Dubai, revealing that the shift was driven by his desire for solitude and focus on his passion for motorsports. “I moved to Dubai to stay away from all the noise,” the 54-year-old actor told The Hollywood Reporter India. “I’m primarily here for motorsports since most major circuits are based here. I’m having to do everything by myself, and I’m loving it.” Once surrounded by an entourage, Ajith now prefers simplicity. “The more people you have around you, the more things you have to deal with,” he said, adding that his middle-class upbringing taught him self-sufficiency. Ajith was last seen in Good Bad Ugly, directed by Adhik Ravichandran. He will be seen in Vidaamuyarchi, scheduled to release next year. He also has AK 64, in his kitty, for which filming is set to begin this month.
