As actor Ajith Kumar is in Dubai pursuing his passion for motorsport gearing up for the 24 Hour Race, he has shared an important update about his acting career.

In his interview before the race, the actor shared that he has been balancing acting and racing all these years but now that he is also the owner of a racing team, he needs to put more effort into the sport. He said he would not enter into any film commitments till September this year and will sign new films and act only from October to March.

His response came to the question whether production houses add clauses to the contract if he can enter races or not. He added that he doesn't need to be told what to do and what not to do.

Recently, he faced a minor crash during a practice session. The actor's racing team, Ajith Kumar Racing, comprises Mathieu Detry, Fabian Duffieux and Cameron McLeod. Duffieux is the team's manager.

In the 24-hour race, each driver is supposed to be on the wheel for six hours and Ajith was just minutes away from completing his endurance training session before the crash.

The race will be held on January 11 and will be livestreamed on YouTube.

On the work front, he has Adhik Ravichandran's Good Bad Ugly slated for a release on April 10 and Magizh Thirumeni's Vidaamuyarchi, which moved out of the Pongal festival release. A fresh release date for the film is yet to be unveiled.
