What's the story

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj, known for his work on Coolie, is reportedly planning his debut in Tollywood. The director has approached Telugu superstar Allu Arjun to lead his upcoming film Irumbu Kai Maayavi. The movie was earlier supposed to star Suriya and was later recast with Aamir Khan, which also didn't lead anywhere. Reports suggest Arjun has given his nod, but a final decision is pending.

Meanwhile, Kanagaraj is preparing for his acting debut in a film directed by Arun Matheswaran. He has also begun pre-production for his next project L7. The director's transition from directing to acting marks an interesting shift in his career and adds another layer of anticipation to his upcoming projects.
