May 1st is observed as the International Workers Day all around the world but to Ajith's fans numbering in millions its Thala Day which they celebrate with as much vigour on the the streets as they do on social media. With just four days to go Thala fans on twitter had planned to trend the HBD Thala Ajith hashtag in number one on Twitter and other social media platforms and had planned to release a common DP for the same to be released by celebrities.

Actor Aadhav Kannadasan one of the celebrities who was to release the common DP has taken to Twitter to inform "Dear Thala Fans Got a call from Ajith sir’s office requesting not to have any common DP for his bday and celebrate it during Corona. It was his personal request! As a fan and as a fellow actor & human would like to respect his words! Asked if i can tweet this and explain .. they said yes pls.. you can do that and tell them. Let us all wish everyone a healthy life during this pandemic. Thala was kind enough to request us so let us respect his words! Thank you all"

Netizens are lauding Thala Ajith as truly one of a kind of megastars in Indian cinema who places the society and the good of his fans and the general public above his personal milestones or special days.
