For a long time, there have been rumours about Tamil director Shankar’s children entering the film industry. While his daughter Aditi Shankar has already made a mark as an actress in both Tamil and Telugu films, now the spotlight is shifting to his son, Arjith Shankar. The latest buzz is that Arjith is ready to make his debut as a lead actor in an upcoming Tamil film.
Arjith has been training in acting for the past few years, preparing himself to step into the limelight. His first film as a hero has been finalised. Interestingly, this film will be directed by a new filmmaker who previously worked as an assistant under director Atlee. Shankar, after reviewing the script and concept, has given his full support to the project.
The film is said to be a youthful entertainer and will be produced by Passion Studios. The shooting is expected to start after the Dasara festival. An official announcement with the cast and crew details is likely to be made soon. Industry insiders are curious to see if Arjith can live up to the expectations that come with being the son of a legendary director.
Meanwhile, Shankar himself has been facing setbacks in recent times. His recent films didn’t meet expectations and received criticism. He is currently taking a break and working on fresh ideas. However, he still has some work left on “Indian 3,” which he plans to complete and release in the coming months.
