Thala Ajith and Thalapathy Vijay are like two pillars of the Tamil cinema in the current generation and their professional rivalry is no less intense than that of MGR-Sivaji and Rajini-Kamal. However, like their frontrunners, both the mass heroes are close family friends who share a mutual respect for each other offscreen.

A throwback video of Vijay bonding with Anoushka Ajith when she was a toddler has gone viral again on the internet. Ajith is seen in conversation with Sangeetha Vijay while Vijay is taking hold of little Anoushka from Shalini. Later Vijay also takes her from Ajith and the whole clip proves how close the two families are for all to see and the moments are genuine as well.

Thala-Thalapathy fans who are known to fight it out on social media as to who is the bigger star of the two have unanimously given the thumbs up for this particular video making it viral.

While Ajith's much anticipated 'Valimai' directed by H. Vinod is going to hit the screens later this year, Vijay's 'Beast' which also carried one of the highest expectations is slated for release in January 2022.
