Ajith

The second in a family of three brothers, (his mother is Sindhi, father a Malayali), Ajit was the odd one out. So while his brothers concentrated on academics, Ajit's turn-on was motorbikes, his dream to become a star of the race tracks.

That dream, however, was shattered when, while practising at the Sholavaram race track outside Madras, he was involved in an accident that left him with a broken vertebra, among other problems. "I lost all sensation in my legs, that was incredibly frightening," recalls Ajit.

Then followed a long period of surgery and physical rehabilitation. Devout to the core, Ajit embarked on a pilgrimage to Tirupati, walking the many hundreds of miles from his home in Madras to the shrine in Tirupati as part of a vow.
