Ajith shares his thoughts on Karur stampede

Karur stampede involving TVK President Vijay resulted in a tragic demise of innocent people.

Blame game started between various political parties and while few celebrities criticised Vijay, others came in support of him and others maintained a stoic silence.

In the midst of all this, Ajith shared his thoughts on Karur stampede. Ajith shared , "That individual alone is not responsible, we are all responsible for it, and the media has a part to play in this."

The actor said that he has a good life because of his fans, but the "love and attention" should be monitored. He shared how fans, in the name of celebration, burst firecrackers and tore the screens, adding that "all this needs to end."

He said  "I'm not trying to put anybody down, but like I say, there's so much happening in Tamil Nadu today because of this stampede that happened. That individual (Vijay) alone is not responsible; we are all responsible for it, and I think even the media has a part to play in this. Today I think we have become a society that's so obsessed with gathering a crowd, to show your crowd. All this has to end."

He continued  "I mean, you have a crowd that goes for a cricket match, you don't see all this happening there, do you? Why is it happening only in theatres? Why is it only happening with celebrities, film personalities? So, what happens? It projects the whole film industry, world over, in a bad light. I mean, even Hollywood actors or we don't wish this. We want that love and that's what we work hard for...There are ways you can express your love."
