Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth and Dhanush her husband of 18 years recently announced their separation shocking their fans. Ever since that both of them have been concentrating on their careers with Dhanush alternating between his Telugu/Tamil bilingual 'Vaathi' and 'Naane Varuven' directed by Selvaraghavan.

Aishwaryaa meanwhile has also kept herself super busy creating her multilingual music video 'Muzafir'. It is now said that she is ready to direct her third film for which she has already written the script.

It has been reported widely that Aishwaryaa's script demands a mass hero and that the production house is keen to get Simbu on board. It is even said that talks have begun in this direction.

When we got in touch with our sources we got the info that Aishwaryaa is indeed directing a new movie very soon which will go on floors in a few months time. However the talented filmmaker has apparently not begun the casting process yet and that she will announce who will play the lead role at the appropriate time.

Simbu meanwhile is on the verge of completing Gautham Menon's 'Vendhu Thanindhadhu Kaadu' and will next move on to 'Pathu Thala' in which Gautham Karthik also plays the parallel lead.
