Mishap Averted at Ajith’s Cutout Celebration in Tirunelveli Ahead of ‘Good Bad Ugly’ Release
In an unfortunate turn of events, a massive 285-feet tall cutout of actor Ajith Kumar, erected by his ardent fans in celebration of his upcoming film Good Bad Ugly, crashed at the PSS Multiplex in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu. The incident occurred just before the much-anticipated release of the film on April 11th. Fortunately, a potentially dangerous situation was averted as fans scrambled to avoid the falling cutout, escaping unscathed.
The cutout, which had been set up to honor the star’s latest release, caused a moment of panic among the fans gathered at the site. Although the structure collapsed, there were no casualties, and the fans quickly dispersed to safety. The near-miss highlights the inherent risks associated with such large-scale public celebrations, especially when safety precautions are overlooked.
Ajith Kumar, known for his humble nature, has repeatedly discouraged such extravagant celebrations, advising his fans to avoid erecting cutouts or engaging in dangerous activities during film promotions. In the past, he has been vocal about the potential risks involved, particularly after a tragic incident during the Thunivu premiere, where a fan lost their life in a similar situation.
Despite the actor’s wishes, the fan culture in Tamil cinema continues to thrive, with supporters often going to great lengths to celebrate their favorite stars. While their enthusiasm is admirable, the importance of safety cannot be overstated. The tragic consequences of negligence can be avoided if proper safety measures are implemented during such public displays.
As the release of Good Bad Ugly approaches, fans remain excited about the film’s debut, but it’s crucial that these celebrations are carried out with caution to prevent any further mishaps. The star-studded event should be a source of joy, not distress.
