Ajith and his wife Shalini visited Vetri’s family on Tuesday. Ajith and Vetri took several bike trips across India and the actor even attended the director’s wedding several years ago. A video shared by a fan on X shows the actor looking bereaved as he walks out of the home.

Kamal offered condolences to Vetri’s family on X. He wrote in Tamil, “The news of the death of Vetri Duraisamy, the son of former Chennai Mayor and friend, Saidai Duraisamy, is deeply saddening. It is an unimaginable grief that a young man who was just starting out met his end in such an accident. My heartfelt condolences to the father who has lost his son. I hope he recovers from this soon.”

Vetri met with an accident on February 4. He was travelling from Shimla to Spiti with friends when the incident occurred. His car fell into the river in Kinnaur district in Himachal Pradesh. Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP), National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) Uttakahand, district police officials and multiple teams were sent out for search operations, according to India Today.
