Ajith Kumar's latest film, Good Bad Ugly, is making waves at the box office with its impressive run five days after its release. The film's success has triggered widespread celebrations among fans and the team behind the project, leading to a special event organized by the makers to commemorate its performance. At the event, director Adhik Ravichandran took the opportunity to speak about his interactions with Ajith Kumar and how the actor reacted to the film’s positive reception.
While most would expect celebrations to be filled with self-congratulatory excitement, Ajith Kumar offered a grounded perspective. In his interaction with Adhik, the actor reminded the director of the transient nature of both success and failure in the film industry. Ajith emphasized that triumphs should not lead to complacency and that failures should not be taken personally. His message to the team was centered on moving forward, focusing on future projects with the same passion and discipline.
This advice sheds light on Ajith’s mature, balanced approach to fame—something that has become a defining trait of his persona. It also highlights why the actor continues to be not just a crowd-puller but a respected figure in the film fraternity. Instead of basking in the glory of a successful film, Ajith prefers to stay focused on his professional journey—both as an actor and car racing.
Ajith Kumar back on racing tracks
While Good Bad Ugly was busy collecting accolades, Ajith Kumar was already in Europe preparing for his next passion project: racing. Videos shared by his racing team showcased the actor working closely with his custom-made white Porsche, which prominently features his name and the Indian flag on the door. The footage offered a rare look at Ajith’s meticulous preparation process, from inspecting the racing wheel to hugging the car with affection.
Ajith's racing career is no vanity pursuit. He is actively involved as a driver and owner of the Ajith Kumar Racing team. The GT4 European Series, in which Ajith is participating this year, is known for being a prestigious and highly competitive motorsport event across iconic circuits in Europe. It caters to a range of drivers, from amateurs to seasoned racers, offering a dynamic mix of challenges.
Ajith’s racing calendar this year includes appearances at some of the most notable tracks in Europe. Between April 11 and 13, he was scheduled to race at the Paul Ricard circuit in France. His next engagements will be at the Zandvoort circuit in the Netherlands from May 16 to 18, the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium from June 26 to 29, and the Misano circuit in Italy from July 18 to 20. In August, Ajith will take to the legendary Nürburgring track in Germany, and his season will conclude with a race in Barcelona from October 10 to 12.
Earlier in 2025, Ajith and his team made the country proud by securing third place in the 991 category at the 24H Dubai race, a prestigious endurance event. This was followed by another third-place finish at the 12H Mugello event in Italy, reaffirming that Ajith’s commitment to motorsport is more than just symbolic.
Good Bad Ugly continues strong box-office run
Meanwhile, back home, Good Bad Ugly is performing exceptionally well at the Indian box office. The film raked in Rs 87.84 crore in just five days. Despite a dip after its massive opening day, the film regained momentum over the weekend, indicating strong word-of-mouth publicity and repeat viewership. Even on weekdays, the film’s numbers held steady, thanks to Ajith’s powerful fanbase and the presence of a compelling ensemble cast that includes Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Das, Rahul Dev, Yogi Babu, Priya Prakash Varrier, Tinnu Anand, Jackie Shroff, Sunil Varma, and Sayaji Shinde.
The film itself is a stylized action entertainer, heavily tailored to cater to Ajith’s fanbase. Directed by Adhik Ravichandran, Good Bad Ugly is designed as a tribute to Ajith’s cinematic journey, filled with callbacks to his previous hits. Though the storytelling style may seem chaotic and over-the-top, it successfully delivers what fans expect—high-octane entertainment with maximum mass appeal.
