Ajith injured while shooting bike-chase scene for Valimai

Actor Ajith Kumar suffered a minor injury while shooting a bike-chase sequence for his upcoming Tamil film Valimai, directed by H Vinoth, who recently helmed Nerkonda Paarvai (2019), the Tamil remake of Pink (2016). 

"Ajith was shooting for a bike-chase scene in the city when his vehicle skidded. In the process, he bruised his arms and legs. The actor took a break of about 20 minutes and continued shooting for his portion. Only after he wrapped up the shoot did he visit his family doctor. The actor should recover in the next few days and will join the team for the next schedule soon," a source was quoted in a report by the daily, The Times of India. 

Valimai is tipped to be an action thriller and international stuntmen have been roped in to supervise its action sequences. 

Recently, the actor was seen sporting a Zapata-style mustache and his avatar immediately went viral. It is rumoured to be his look for the film. At a recent award ceremony, producer Boney Kapoor revealed that Ajith plays a cop in the movie.
