Actor Ajith has been involved in a minor bike accident during the shooting of his next film Valimai in which he plays a cop. The film is produced by Boney Kapoor and directed by H Vinoth, who worked with the star earlier in Nerkonda Paarvai.

After two hits with Viswasam and NKP , Ajith began shooting for Valimai earlier this year. With fans eager to see him channel his real-life passion for superbikes on screen as well, the actor (like he’s done in previous films) agreed to a fast-paced routine on his bike, which unfortunately, went awry, resulting in a fall and injuries.

However, as per reports, the actor was quick to calm everyone on set, and after a short break, resumed the shooting to finish the schedule.

Ajith was taken to see the doctor from the sets and he is expected to take a breather from shooting for a few days, before joining the Valimai team in Hyderabad for the next schedule.

Fans on Twitter started trending the hashtag #GetWellsoonThala on Twitter, wishing him a speedy recovery.

Valimai also stars Huma Qureshi who was last seen in Rajinikanth’s Kaala . The rest of the cast is expected to be announced soon, with the film aiming for Diwali 2020 release.
