Kajal Aggarwal Spills Secrets On Directorial Debut

Kajal Aggarwal isn’t just picking scripts she’s picking up the camera. In a move that has caught many by surprise, the actress is reportedly preparing to direct her first film. And if that wasn’t enough, she’s also expected to play the lead in it. The buzz started quietly, but now it’s gaining momentum.

From her 2007 Telugu debut in Lakshmi Kalyanam and Chandamama to sharing screen space with top stars across Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi films, Kajal has carved out a long, successful run. After taking a break for marriage and motherhood, she’s stepping back in with a sharper focus not just to act, but to shape stories her way.

Industry chatter also suggests Kajal might take on a bold role soon, following the path of contemporaries like Tamannaah and Tabu who’ve explored edgier scripts recently. While no official word has dropped, insiders believe she’s ready to break the mould. Her decision to direct only adds to the idea that she’s rewriting her own rulebook.

At the same time, she’s not slowing down in front of the camera. Kajal plays Parvathy in Kannappa, set for release on June 27, and she’s actively shooting for The India Story, Indian 3, and the upcoming Bollywood epic Ramayana: Part 1. Whether she’s in the frame or behind it, Kajal seems more in control of her career than ever before.
