Ajith Kumar
Actor Ajith Kumar, who is training for the Dubai 24H race, met with an unfortunate accident. The Tamil actor's car crashed on a racing track during a training session. Reports suggest that Ajith luckily escaped the situation unharmed, but the video of the speeding car hitting the track's safety barrier and spinning before stopping has left fans worried about him. Such situations are not uncommon during motor racing practices. Ajith has been quite passionate about motor racing; in fact, it was back in 2000 when he once took a break from acting to focus on his love for the sport.
"Ajith is unhurt, hale, and healthy. He was driving at a speed of 180 km/h when this happened," shared Ajith Kumar's manager, Suresh Chandra, while giving an update on his health. Ajith Kumar owns the racing team Ajith Kumar Racing. The video shared by his team shows Ajith's car spinning multiple times after it hit the barrier. He was rescued and taken to an ambulance for first aid. The caption of the post reads, "Ajith Kumar's massive crash in practice, but he walks away unscathed. Another day in the office ⦠that's racing!"
