Agonized Ajith in Apollo!

The back pain that had lain dormant has surfaced again and put Ajith in great agony.

Ajith has been greatly affected by an accident during Ajith has been greatly affected by an accident during motorcycle racing. For that spinal cord injury, he has been operated on 9 times. For those baulk at just one surgery, Ajith is a great example of a phoenix rising again and again.

During the shooting of 'Red' and 'Citizen,' Ajith continued to shoot with a doctor by his side. The medication he was on made him put on weight. When the media went to town criticizing him for being fat, he went on a strict regimen, lost 18kgs and became his old self again.

In spite of undergoing so many physical difficulties, Ajith continued to do risky shots without using a dupe. He did his stunt shots recently for 'Kireetam' in Visakapatnam.

Despite the director urging him to have a dupe, he did his own stunt of jumping from a car. This has awakened the old back pain and an agonized Ajith was flown to Chennai and admitted in Apollo. After 2 days of treatment, he's back in the shooting spot.

Unfortunately for him, he was again racked by back pain and a tormented Ajith was again brought by ambulance and flown to Chennai to be readmitted in Apollo Hospital. Following this, shooting has been cancelled. The director, actors and technicians have all returned to Chennai.

With grit and determination, Ajith sailed through 9 operations. We sincerely hope that he will surmount this 10th one too with the same confidence.

This is not the first time Ajith will be surmounting difficulties.
