Shriya Back as Ajit’s heroine?

Has Shriya made up with Ajit ? There is a buzz that she is back as heroine in choreographer Raju Sundaram's untitled film for Ayngaran. Remember, she lost out this coveted role because she did an item number with Vadivel in Indiralokathil Naa Azhagappan, which Ajith feels is not cool for a top heroine to do!

Last week Shriya who was in Chennai shooting for Kandasamy met up one night over dinner with "good friend" Trisha at Dakshin in Park Sheraton. The buzz is that it was Trisha who advised her to call up Ajit and wish him on becoming a father.

And when Shriya called up "Thalai" to wish him, the cool-as-cucumber star was impressed by her talk. Much before that, the real "superstar of Kollywood" had told him never to mix personal likes and dislikes with one's work, and at some point in his career he should work with people like Vadivel with whom he had ideological differences.

The grapevine has it that after Shriya spoke to Ajit, the ice between them has melted, and he has no objection to being paired with her. It was sweet music for Raju Sundaram as his mission for a glamorous replacement heroine for Shriya had ended in a fiasco. He has to start the film from February first week if it has to release for August 15, and now if Shriya makes some adjustments with her dates it is possible for her to be a part of the project.

Meanwhile there has not been any official statement from the producer or the director's side to confirm the news. There have been reports that Ayesha Takia and Sneha Ullal were keen to do the film. We will have to wait for the official announcement to come sometime after Pongal!

Ajith Follows Rajini’s Advice

Ajith is seen wearing a diamond ring and a gold bracelet nowadays. Previously Ajith did not have the habit of wearing ring or bracelet on his hand.

When enquired about this, sources close to him has said that this is on the advice given by Super star Rajini Kanth.

Of late Ajith has become close to Rajini and it is because of this that the Superstar had even okayed Ajith to do the remake of his film Billa. When Ajith had met Rajini to speak about Billa, the super star is said to have advised him to wear a diamond ring.

Girl baby to Ajith and Shalini

The wait is over! Ajith and Shalini are now blessed with a bundle of joy. Shalini gave birth to a girl child in the early hours (1.40 AM. - 2.10 AM) of today.

Shalini was admitted in Appollo Hospital in Chennai yesterday morning. The child was born after a caesarian operation. Both the mother and child are in good condition, confirm the sources close to the couple.

The couple couldn’t have had a better New Year gift. Ajith, who is basking in the glory of the success of his latest film ‘Billa’, is on cloud nine. The couple is quite happy to have a new entrant in their life.

It’s worth recalling that Ajith said in a press meet conducted prior to the release of ‘Billa’ that he or Shalini had no choice regarding the gender of the girl. "We want the child to be healthy", was his response.
