Vivek once fasted for 48 days praying for Ajith’s recovery

It turns out that comedian Vivek, whose recent film Naan Than Bala is doing well besides getting good reviews, once fasted for 48 days praying for the recovery of Ajith who had been admitted to a hospital at that time for his recurring back-ache and a surgery.

Ajith and Vivek share excellent rapport among themselves and have starred in films such as Kadhal Mannan, Vaali, Mugavari, Poovellam Un Vaasam, Unnai Thedi, Aalwar and Kireedom. The duo would be seen together after a long time in Ajith’s upcoming Gautham Menon starrer Sathya. During the shoot of the film, Vivek revealed his affection for Ajith and how he fasted once for 48 days praying for Ajith’s recovery.

When Ajith was shooting for Unnai Thedi, he was undergoing severe back-ache and still shot for the film neglecting the pain. However, as doctors advised him to go for a surgery at once, Ajith was admitted and operated upon. It was a tough surgery as a hole was made in the front side of Ajith’s neck and even as the surgery was performed on the back. Few individuals would have come out successfully out of such surgeries.

Vivek, who wanted Ajith to recover soon, prayed to Lord Muruga and underwent fasting for 48 days. When Ajith recovered and started acting in films, nobody was happier than Vivek, who revealed this only recently saying “I did so only for the friendship I share with Ajith and didn’t want to reveal it; now that it has come to light, I’m only happy that Ajith is doing fine and I’m starring in his 55th film with him!”
