Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Next as Hero: Bold Choice or Big Risk?

Following the commercial success of Psycho in 2020, director Mysskin completed the shooting for his next two directorial ventures Pisasu 2 and Train. Even though both films are ready for release, they have been put on hold due to financial issues.

Meanwhile, Mysskin has not yet officially announced his next directorial venture and is currently concentrating on his acting career. In this scenario, Mysskin recently opened up about his upcoming directorial plans during an interview and his updates are now going viral on social media.

Mysskin stated that he doesn’t care whether Pisasu 2 and Train are released anymore, claiming that he has already moved on from them. He revealed that he has pitched a script to Lokesh Kanagaraj, who liked it very much.

Furthermore, he mentioned that whenever Lokesh Kanagaraj is free, he will direct the film with Lokesh playing the lead role. He also claimed that he plans to make Anjathe 2 with Narain in the lead and is currently writing another story titled Itchai.

In response to this update, many fans on social media are urging the director to start the film with Lokesh Kanagaraj soon. They feel that if this collaboration happens, Mysskin will bring out the best in Lokesh Kanagaraj as an actor.

They also note that Lokesh Kanagaraj proved himself as a solid actor in DC and despite his directorial commitment with Allu Arjun, he should not sideline his acting potential. Many claim Mysskin would be the perfect filmmaker to helm Lokesh Kanagaraj’s second film.

Meanwhile, another section of audiences feels that Lokesh Kanagaraj should pick a more mainstream director for his second film as an actor. They feel that although Mysskin is a solid filmmaker, his films may not appeal to a wider audience.

Therefore, they suggest that following a massive debut, Lokesh Kanagaraj should team up with a commercial director to match audience expectations rather than choosing an offbeat filmmaker like Mysskin.

Ultimately, it remains to be seen whether Lokesh Kanagaraj will collaborate with Mysskin for his second acting venture and if he does, how the project will take shape.
