After composer Yuvan Shankar Raja admitted to embracing Islam on his social networking site, now, actor Jai is said to have been following the religion for quite sometime now. Rumours are rife that the actor has also converted to Islam. But when contacted, the actor denied converting to Islam.
A source close to the actor elaborates, “Jai has been following Islam for the past one year. He had even kept the fast during Ramzan last year, and since then, has been visiting the dargah every Friday without fail. We don’t know the actual reason behind his change of mind. All we know is that he has been following the religion and has not officially converted yet. And also, he has not changed his name.”
Meanwhile, the actor also hinted about his affinity to Islam in his messenger site, where his status read ‘Alhamdhulillah’, which in turn sparked off the conversion rumours. However, when we contacted the actor, he said, “I haven’t converted to Islam.”
