Chennai, September 29:
Looks like SPB Charan is quite peeved with the fact that Thala Ajith did
not convey his condolence or attend the funeral of his father. The issue gained
traction on the social media after Thalapathi Vijay fans went berserk as their
idol turned up at the farm house on the city outskirts to pay his last
respects. This was used as an example of how sensitive their idol is to
happening around him. A photo and a video went viral which showed Vijay picking
up a slipper of a fan lying on the ground and handing it over to him. There was
a melee as Vijay was leaving the funeral venue.
SPB Charan at the press meet to clear the air on the story
doing the social media rounds that it was not the SPB fans in Andhra or Tamil
Nadu and those abroad that paid for the final pending dues at the hospital but
it was Vice President Venkiah Naidu who settled it. The details are given in
another report filed in this blog. read ;https://southfilmy.blogspot.com/2020/09/after-state-honours-venkiah-naidu.html
Did Thala Ajith phone
SPB Charan ?
At the press conference, SPB Charan was asked several
questions about Ajith’s silence. Charan had this to say – “Let Ajith mourn from
his house. So what? There is no need for
him to come and give his last respects? He is a friend of mine and so also of
my Dad. Let him pay his condolences from anywhere. Is it a big issue? Why
should Ajith phone me and convey his wishes? Please do not spread rumors. What
if he felt sad while at home and phoned me? To me and my family, SPB is no
more. It is a great loss for us. We need some time to be alone,”. At the end of
the press meet, a visibly drained Charan said that his outbursts were not meant
against anyone but generally an expression of grief.
SPB praised Ajith for
his reclusive behavior
At a reality show in Star Vijay, SPB as judge said “"One quality that I
like about Ajith is that he never gives interview for magazines or TV,
He does not post comments on social media and create unnecessary controversy”.
SPB who introduced Ajith in a Telugu film produced by him also spoke about the
actor and his son Charan being friends “ Charan and Ajith were class mates. They did their
matriculation in Andhra. In his initial days, Ajith used to wear Charan's
shirts and shoes for ad shoots over sentimental reasons," he revealed.
For and against Ajith’s
behavior
Sports Commentator, quiz show
host and participant in TV debates, Sumanth C Raman had without mentioning
names tweeted - "When those who
benefited a lot more from #SPB songs than @actorvijay chose to stay away this
was a heartwarming gesture by Vijay. Respect indeed. ??". The tweet
saw director Venkat Prabhu (who had directed Ajith and close friend of SPB
Charan) offering his pranam. Ajith fans had raised their voice against this
tweet. To this Raman tweeted – “There is no disrespect meant to anyone. It is
their choice to go or not especially with Covid around. I am just pointing out
a fact. But why are only fans of one particular star getting agitated and
abusive?? So many didn't go."
Ajith has no social media handles and only
lately he announced that his manager Suresh Chandra is his official
spokesperson. Nayanthara , like Ajith keeps away from film promotions and the
media. However she has a SM handle and all her outings with her BF Vignesh
Shivn gets covered in full detail with photos (posted by the couple or the paparazzi).
She too posted a condolence message. Kamal Haasan made it to the hospital on
the evening before the death of SPB. All others issued condolences.
