Arjun has confirmed that he would soon start working on a film for Aascar V Ravichandran, one of the leading producers of Tamil cinema. "I will direct the movie, besides playing the lead role," said the 'Action King'.

"An official announcement in this regard will be made soon. Also, by this year end, I should probably start directing a Hindi movie," said the actor, who last year made waves by playing a crucial role in Ajith's 'Mankatha'.

Arjun's Kannada flick 'Prasad', which made his presence felt at the coveted Berlin film festival recently, will soon be released in Tamil. Music for the movie is by Ilayaraja. "I play a middle-class father in Prasad," reveals Arjun.

Meanwhile, Arjun is playing a role inspired by top police officer Vijayakumar in 'Vana Yudhdham', a biopic on forest brigand Veerappan, being helmed by AMR Ramesh. "It is a great role and I had the privilege of interacting with Vijayakumar," says Arjun.
