The recognition has sparked a wave of celebration among fans and the racing community alike.
Sharing the news on Instagram, Ajith’s wife and actor Shalini wrote, “Honoured to stand beside my husband in Venice, as he is being awarded ‘Gentleman Driver of the Year 2025’ in honour of entrepreneur and racing driver, the late Philippe Charriol.” The photos featured her alongside Ajith and their family.
