What Ajith recently said about becoming an actor Recently, in an interview with India Today, Ajith called himself an 'accidental actor'. "I was 18 when I started racing motorcycles. I remember my father said that it is a very expensive sport and we cannot support you, but you must find your way. I was at the race track when I was approached by a model coordinator who gave me a visiting card and said if I am interested, then give me a call back. Then, before I started realising, I started doing print ads and TV commercials.' He added, 'I told them that I know that I am leaping in the dark. But imagine all those people who want to be in my position and see that I have been approached by a production company and I refused, imagine how angry they would feel… That's how I became an actor. I gave a journalist an answer that I had debts, and the idea was to make a couple of films, and if I did become successful, I would repay my debts. I didn't come to the industry seeking fame.' About Ajith's family, recent career Ajith proposed to Shalini in 1999, and they tied the knot in April 2000 in Chennai. They have two children: Anoushka (born in 2008) and Aadvik (born in 2015).
