Ajith Kumar back in Chennai after being stranded in Dubai
Actor Ajith Kumar has safely returned to Chennai after being stranded in Dubai for several days due to escalating tensions in the Middle East linked to the ongoing conflict involving Israel, the United States, and Iran.
A video of Ajith Kumar returning to Chennai was shared on his fan page on Tuesday.
The actor had been in Dubai when the situation intensified, leading to sudden airspace restrictions across parts of West Asia.
As a result, several international flights were either cancelled or rerouted, leaving many travellers stuck in different Gulf cities. Ajith Kumar was among those affected by the travel disruptions.
A video circulating on social media shows him arriving at the airport and heading towards his car with his luggage before leaving the premises. His return comes as a relief to fans who had been concerned about his safety during the regional crisis.
Earlier, Ajith Kumar’s manager had assured fans that the actor was safe despite the uncertainty caused by flight suspensions.
The travel disruptions were triggered by growing geopolitical tensions that forced airlines to halt or divert several routes across the Middle East.
