Bollywood Star Ajith Kumar Races Towards New Heights with Symbolic Helmet

As of November 13th, 2025, Bollywood star Ajith Kumar has unveiled a vibrant, deeply symbolic helmet design for the upcoming racing season. The helmet's top crown bears the emblem of the "Ashta Lakshmi," representing the eight divine forms of Goddess Lakshmi, which Ajith says he uses to seek guidance from the divine powers. Encircling the helmet is a motif of a film roll, signifying how his film career has been the foundation for his racing dreams.

Ajith's racing ambitions are set to reach new heights as his team, Ajith Kumar Racing, prepares to field a team in the Asian Le Mans Series. The six-race series will get underway in December 2025 in Malaysia and conclude in Abu Dhabi in February 2026. Ajith will be joined behind the wheel by India's first F1 driver, Narain Karthikeyan, as they compete in the LMP3 category with a Ligier JS P325 powered by a Toyota 3.6-litre twin-turbo V6.

Ajith's journey has been one of balancing his successful film career with his passion for motorsports. The Yin-Yang symbol on his helmet reflects this delicate balance he has fought to maintain between these two worlds. As he continues to move forward with purpose, Ajith Kumar remains anchored by his faith, driven by his passion, and strengthened by his experience.
