Happy Gandhi Jayanthi

" In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth."

The wonderful quote that is mentioned above is said by the Indian father, " The Great Mahatma Gandhi", the lovable person who followed non violence policy to help India get freedom. The Great mahatma is well known for his principles and honesty. The man with a lion heart who fought for the freedom of India. The whole of India is celebrating Gandhiji's birthday today!

"Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well."

He lived his life in a simple way but has enabled us to lead a independent happy life. I would like to thank him from my heart for jis wonderful service to our nation. It is the duty of every indian citizen to follow the path shown by the legend. Wish you all a very happy Gandhi Jayanthi. Jai Hind!

Ajith wrote a open letter to his fans that I sincerely feel that whole process will be highly inhuman if we celebrate my birthday on the background of our fellow Tamils languishing and suffering amidst death and pain in Sri Lanka”.The star also added that since general elections are being conducted all over the country, the birthday celebrations if they take place should not pose any discomfort to the authorities concerned.

The actor is currently on a holiday abroad after which he will be plunging back into the shooting of his next film Asal in which he joins hands again with Director Saran. The movie is produced by Sivaji Productions. Asal being the Ultimate Star’s 49th movie, his fans will definitely be looking forward to it becoming a super hit movie; further raising the bar for their thala’s 50th movie.
