One of South cinema’s most beloved couples, Ajith Kumar and Shalini, marked a major milestone on April 24 as they celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary. True to their nature, the celebration was simple yet deeply touching — a quiet testament to their enduring love.
Shalini gave fans a rare peek into their celebration through a short video on Instagram. In it, the couple is seen sharing a peaceful moment together, cutting a small cake in what appears to be a cozy room. Ajith gently fed her a slice and endearingly asked, “Is it nice?” — a moment that melted fans' hearts and underscored the actor’s softer side.
The video quickly went viral, with fans flooding the comments section to shower the couple with love and admiration. Ajith and Shalini’s romance began on the sets of ‘Amarkalam’ in 1999. Ajith once revealed it was love at first sight.
During a scene, he accidentally injured her wrist, and upon realizing it, rushed to get her medical attention. That moment sparked a bond that grew stronger with time. They married in 2000, just after the release of Madhavan and Shalini’s hit film ‘Alaipayuthey’, after which she gracefully stepped away from acting to focus on family life.

Ajith, meanwhile, continues to balance his passion for cinema and motorsports. He was last seen in ‘Good Bad Ugly’ alongside Trisha Krishnan and is currently pursuing his racing career, with three wins in the 24H racing series already to his name.
Their quiet, intimate anniversary celebration perfectly reflects the grace and warmth that defines their relationship — a love story still going strong after 25 years.
