Kollywood superstar Ajith Kumar is known for his unusual habit of repeatedly working with directors who he believes have the right touch for his films. While it’s common for heroes to team up with the same heroines multiple times, Ajith prefers to collaborate with directors who leave a lasting impact on him. If he likes a director, he offers them multiple opportunities to work together, which has helped in building a unique connection with several filmmakers.
Ajith has a history of working with directors like Saran, Shiva, and Vinod. He has made several successful films with them, including Kaadhal Mannan, Amar Kaalan, Attagasam, and Asal. Among these, director Siva stands out as a key figure in Ajith’s career. Their partnership began with Veeram and continued with blockbusters like Vedalam, Vivegam, and Vishwasam, solidifying Siva as a star director in Kollywood.
Ajith’s collaboration with director H. Vinod also played a crucial role in his recent success, with hits like Nerkonda Parvai, Valimai, and Thunivu. These films, which were part of Ajith’s successful run, helped Vinod establish his place in the industry. Meanwhile, director Adhik Ravichandran, known for Marc Antony and Good Bad Ugly, is the next filmmaker to enter Ajith’s circle. Ravichandran’s impressive directing style and his rapport with actors have reportedly caught Ajith’s attention, with sources suggesting that Ajith may offer him a chance to direct his next project. This continuing pattern of Ajith’s collaborations showcases his unique way of building relationships with filmmakers, further cementing his stature in the industry.
