Ajith Kumar Hospitalised After Leg Injury at Chennai Airport

Ajith Kumar was hospitalised in Chennai on Wednesday after suffering a minor leg injury at the airport. The incident occurred when the popular actor returned from New Delhi, where he was honoured with the Padma Bhushan by President Droupadi Murmu. A large crowd had gathered to welcome him back, and in the chaos, Ajith sustained the injury.

Sources close to the actor stated that he was mobbed by fans at the Chennai airport, leading to a small leg injury. To ensure proper recovery, Ajith was admitted to a private hospital for physiotherapy. The good news is that the actor’s condition is stable, and he is expected to be discharged by the evening. His team assured fans that there’s nothing serious to worry about.

On Monday, Ajith received the prestigious Padma Bhushan for his contributions to Indian cinema. His wife, Shalini Ajith, was present at the ceremony and was seen proudly cheering for him. Ajith expressed his gratitude through a heartfelt statement, thanking President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the national honour.

When the Padma Awards were announced earlier in January, Ajith said he felt humbled and privileged to be recognized at such a level. The accolade marks a major milestone in his illustrious career.

Professionally, Ajith was last seen in the film Good Bad Ugly, and fans are now eagerly awaiting his next move. While this recent injury has caused concern, it is clear that the beloved actor remains strong and will soon be back on his feet.
