A few days ago actor Ajith Kumar was spotted in an all-white bearded look, which was a stark contrast to the look he is sporting in his upcoming movie Valimai. Turns out Ajith is returning to the greys and will be sporting a long beard for his next movie AK 61 (tentative title). Ajith is reuniting with Boney Kapoor for a third time with AK 61 and in a first official announcement, the producer confirmed that prep-mode was on for the project.

Sources say #AK61 team was planning to properly launch the secretly guarded surprise look of #AjithKumar in a big way.

After the unexpected leaked photo of Ajith with a fan going viral, the production team quickly scrambled to release a #AK61 with basic visual edits.
