Thala Ajith is an ardent admirer of the departed Chief Minister Dr.J.Jayalalitha who passed away last night. Ajith conveyed his condolence for the Iron leader through a press release in the morning as he has been shooting for his upcoming film 'AK 57' in Bulgaria. Hence it was assumed that he will not be coming to Chennai to pay last homage to the Puratchithalaivi.

But the fact is Ajith has indeed boarded the flight from Bulgaria to Chennai as he was so keen on paying the last homage to the politician he admires a lot. He has boarded the flight in Bulgaria without knowing thattthe final rituals were concluded by around 6:30 PM.

This means Ajith could not return to Chennai before the CM was laid to rest in the Anna Square campus in Marina beach, Chennai. He is expected to meet O.Panneerselvam the new Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu who was also a trusted protege of Jayalalitha and convey his condolences.

The actor will be returning to Bulgaria tomorrow and carry on with the shoot.
