Ajith Kumar
Banners and cut-outs of Tamil superstar Ajith Kumar have been going up across Tamil Nadu in anticipation of his upcoming film Good Bad Ugly. However, a massive cut-out of the actor placed outside a theatre in Tirunelveli collapsed recently, triggering panic among bystanders who scrambled to avoid injury. The cut-out was reportedly over 250 feet tall.
On April 6, ahead of the film's release on Thursday, fans of Ajith gathered at the PSS Multiplex in Tirunelveli to celebrate and prepare for the big day. As part of their celebrations, they installed the towering cut-out on the theatre's wall. Unfortunately, the structure collapsed soon after, crashing to the ground.
Despite their enthusiasm, Ajith Kumar has consistently discouraged his fans from spending money on extravagant celebrations. Instead, he has urged them to invest in their families and well-being. In a past message to his fans, he said:

I'll be truly happy when I know that my fans are doing well, are kind to my peers and co-stars, and speak positively of others."

It is then that Ajith is seen uttering his first dialogue in the trailer which also sets the tone for the film with an understanding of his character. Ajith says, "I gave up smoking for my sake, I gave up drinking for my wife's sake and I gave up violence for my son's sake. But if my son is at risk, I would have to go back to what I have given up, wouldn't I?"
