Ajith Kumar spilled beans on starting his next project
After two back-to-back hits with Vidaamuyarchi and Good Bad Ugly and a series of achievements on the racing front, all eyes are on Ajith Kumar's next film.
In a previous interview with the Indian Express, the actor confirmed that his next project is on the cards and even mentioned when he would begin shooting for the same.
He said, 'If I can squeeze in a film between the November to February period, I will then have a film release every year, and I can also focus on my racing program. I will be starting to film a new project in November this year, which will hopefully be released sometime around April or May 2026.'
When Ajith Kumar talked about making a race movie in India
With the love for the racing film F1 pouring in from fans recently, Ajith Kumar had spoken about the possibility of such a kind of film being made in India.
Moreover, he further added if he, as an actor-racer, would wish to be a part of it or even headline it as the lead actor.
As per a post by industry insider Laxmi Kanth on X, the actor reflected, 'I guess maybe a Fast and Furious film or an F1. I normally perform my own stunts in a film, so yeah, maybe a Fast and Furious sequel… or the sequel on F1.'

'Shah Rukh Khan drank village chaas without hesitation,' says Makarand Deshpande as recalls Swades shoot and SRK's generosity
Makarand Deshpande has always been an intense actor and recently opened up about the movie which he did with Shah Rukh Khan , Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Swades'. He recalled some behind-the-scenes incidents which made it very memorable for him in particular. Deshpande reflected on SRK's humility, creative involvement, and the emotional warmth that defined their reunion after 13 years. SRK's grounded gesture: He drank chaas without hesitation Deshpande reminisced while appearing on the Cyrus Says podcast when offered super star SRK a glass of buttermilk freshly fetched from a local village during the shooting of Yun Hi Chala Chal. SRK, despite being a star, would not refuse such an offering, and that was the moment when Deshpande truly believed to capture his down-to-earth nature. As said in the interview, SRK drank it 'bina kisi jhijak ke,' without flinching or fuss. Shah Rukh Khan took charge behind the scenes During the filming of the road-trip song, Deshpande described how SRK took on multiple responsibilities—driving the caravan, coordinating with the crew via walkie-talkie, and even helping choreograph moments. Deshpande jokingly called himself the 'brat' on set, enjoying the ride while SRK handled the logistics. He added that the idea for his hair movement during Kailash Kher's alaap came directly from SRK, who was invested in even the smallest creative details. A reunion after 13 years—and SRK remembered everything As reported by Indian Express, Deshpande was surprised by how much SRK remembered about his theatre work and indie film 'Danav,' despite not being in touch for over a decade. The actor said it felt like three people from different worlds, him from theatre, SRK from superstardom, and Gowariker fresh off 'Lagaan' coming together in harmony. SRK's cameo for Deshpande's indie film came with no price Deshpande also shared that when he requested SRK to appear in a close-up for his indie film 'Shahrukh Bola Khoobsurat Hai Tu,' the actor did not charge a fee. Instead, SRK told him to send his cameraman and offered his own car and camera for the shoot. As said in the podcast, SRK told him, 'You don't need to spend money. Just send your cameraman, I'll get the unit.'
