I had no idea what a big star Ajith was, says Pia Bajpai

416Actress Pia Bajpai made her on-screen debut with 'Poi Solla Porom' directed by AL Vijay which released in September 2008 and her very next film to release was Ajith-starrer 'Aegan' directed by choreographer turned director Raju Sundaram. With both her films releasing within a month's gap the young actress must have been a debutante while shooting for both the films.
In a recent interaction, Pia Bajpai revealed that if she had the chance to trade her life with someone else for a day, she would trade it with Ajith as she wants to feel that fan following and love from the people.
Speaking about actor Ajith, Pia Bajpai said, “When I signed Aegan, I had no idea what a big star he is and what I was getting into. I had no idea it was a huge set up and that I would crib after the film and tell people how foolish I was not knowing who Ajith was or what the film is. It was such a big thing for me but I was completely clueless."
Recalling the shooting in Yercaud, she added, "When I was called for my shot, before I could come out of my vanity van I could hear fans outside shouting for someone and cheering. I knew it was all not for me. When I saw Ajith sir coming out people were going completely mad and then I got some idea that he is a superstar of sorts."
The young actress went to say that she was completely clueless and was angry that no one told her that it's a big project that she is getting into.
Talking about Thala Ajith, “He was very nice with me. I was a newcomer and was the youngest on set. Since I was new to south, he was so protective and nice to me. We used to have conversations about the industry, the profession and being on set. I have learnt so many things from him. Like someone can be a superstar and can be humble at the same time,” added Pia.
