It is not uncommon for sports personalities to let others know how difficult their job is. Cricket fans should remember Jimmy Neesham telling children not to take up any form of sports after his New Zealand team's crushing defeat to England in the 2019 World Cup Final. The other day, even Ajith Kumar shared a similar sentiment, albeit in a different context, to two children who approached the actor cum car racer to take a photograph with him. The children told Ajith that they also want to be racers like him. Upon hearing this, Ajith told them, "You may regret it. It is tough life (as a racer)." However, the actor was seen in a more jovial mood as he went down on one knee to click pictures with the kids. As one of them also sat down seeing Ajith do so, the actor told him not to. He was also seen being affectionate with the kids.

Ajith's interactions with his fans have been winning over netizens over the last few days. The other day, the actor smiled and waved at a girl as she was trying to take a self with him.

Ajith Kumar is now participating in the Asian Le Mans Series. He is taking part in the series with former Formula One racer Narain Karthikeyan. On the work front, he is expected to join Adhik Ravichandran on their next project after his racing commitments early next year.
