After the box office success of Good Bad Ugly, Ajith Kumar has still not made an official announcement about his next film. However, director Adhik Ravichandran confirmed months ago that the two are collaborating again.
There had been strong speculation that even though the director and story were finalised, no production house was ready to take up the project because of Ajith Kumar’s high salary demands. This rumour spread widely across social media.
Amid this buzz, Adhik Ravichandran recently spoke about the project during a press meet, and his comments have gone viral. He said that pre production work is completed and the location hunt has begun. He also confirmed that shooting will start in February and called it a very special project.
After this statement, some Ajith Kumar fans said Adhik Ravichandran had finally cleared the air. They claimed the salary rumours were fake and spread by haters. Fans argue that if the speculation were true, the director could not confidently announce a February shoot.
Supporters believe the project has already been signed and that an official announcement will come soon. However, there is still no clarity on which production house will back Ajith Kumar’s 64th film.
Fans are not overly excited yet. Adhik and Ajith’s last film, Good Bad Ugly, was not well received by the common audience. It became a success mainly due to fan moments. Many feel that if Adhik repeats a similar formula, the result may not work this time.
For now, everyone is waiting to see how Ajith Kumar’s 64th film shapes up and what Adhik Ravichandran plans to deliver when it finally releases.
