Megastar Chiranjeevi received a surprise visit from Ajith Kumar on the sets of his upcoming film 'Vishwambhara'. Pictures of their meet were shared by Chiranjeevi on Instagram. The actor looked dapper in a black shirt paired with a grey t-shirt and charcoal grey pants. Ajith on the other hand wore a flannel shirt and white chinos.
Sharing the photos on Instagram, Chiranjeevi wrote, "Had a surprise Star guest on the sets of #Vishwambhara last evening. The very affectionate Ajit Kumar who's shooting next doors visited & we spent some great time chatting up and fondly recollecting the time of his debut film âPrema Pustakam' whose music launch was done by me. And what's more, his better half, Shalini acted as one of the endearing kids in my film âJagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari'. Clearly, there were memories galore to cherish. I was so delighted at the peaks of stardom Ajit has attained over the years and yet how he remained a beautiful soul at heart!"
