Fans reacted in the following way.

One user wrote, "Man's respect towards his idol (sic)." While, the other commented, "What a man. No words to say (sic)." A third fan noted Ajith seeking Senna's blessings.

Ajith on his racing and passion said "I don't think it's fair on my part to be putting Shalini or my loved ones through this. I'm sure my family is worried, but my wife, Shalini, also realises that racing is something I have been doing since I was very young."

He added "Even before I became an actor, it just happened organically. If you ask me how it happened, I can't pinpoint any one particular moment. It was there at the back of my mind that I needed to get back to racing. Of course, I am too old for single-seaters now."
