Ajith Kumar, the Tamil Superstar, is fondly called 'Thala' by fans. The actor was recently seen in 'Good Bad Ugly', released on April 10. He was also seen in 'Vidamuyarchi', an action thriller, released in February. Ajith Kumar and his wife Shalini, also a popular actor, celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on April 24.

Gautam Gambhir makes new claim on Shreyas Iyer's Test omission, says 'it's always about...'
Shreyas Iyer. New Delhi: Several important players were not included in India's 18-member squad for the five-Test tour in England starting from June 20. It's especially important to mention that Shreyas Iyer is not in the squad even after his impressive ODI and T20 form lately. Initially mum, Gautam Gambhir mentioned later that players who keep scoring will still be considered. 'Anyone can be called if they are in good form. We can only pick 18. But I believe it's always about being open to people who are in good form and can deliver,' Gambhir told reporters in Mumbai on Thursday. Earlier, when Gambhir was asked about Shreyas' omission, Gambhir said, 'I'm not the selector'. BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar commented on Shreyas Iyer during the team announcement: 'Yes, Shreyas Iyer has played well in domestic cricket, but at the moment, there is no room for him in the Test Team.' During the 2025 season, Shreyas Iyer delivered great performances and became India's top scorer for the Champions Trophy win. Iyer's show for Punjab Kings in IPL 2025 lived up to the expectations set by his big contract. He helped his team reach the final and was their best run-scorer, finishing with 604 runs in 17 games at a great strike rate of 175. As given by the BCCI and ECB, the series will now be known as the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, paying homage to Sachin Tendulkar and James Anderson.
