For those unaware, superstar Ajith Kumaris not only a significant name in the cinema industry but has also made notable strides as a professional racer. The actor signed on as a racing driver in 2003, following his one-off race during the Formula Maruti Indian Championships in 2002, where he finished in fourth place.
After signing a contract with manager Akbar Ebrahim in 2003, Ajith participated in the inaugural Formula BMW Asia Championship. Although he spun out during the first lap of the race, he successfully completed the season, finishing in twelfth place.
Six years after taking a sabbatical from racing, the actor returned to the track for his third season of car racing by participating in the 2010 season of the FIA Formula Two Championship.
Becoming a racing driver, the superstar has competed in various circuits around India including Chennai, Mumbai, and Delhi. Moreover, he is also one of the very few Indians to compete in the International arena and in FIA championships.
As the actor’s contemporary Thalapathy Vijay is stepping away from cinema to focus on his political career, we would have to wait and see if Ajith would also decide something similar to follow his passion. If so, would the film Good Bad Ugly serve as the actor's final outing?
