Arulnithi’s next is a horror film with AR Murugadoss’ assistant Ajay

AR Murugadoss’s assistants are known for creating a mark for themselves in the industry. The latest to join the long-list of directors who made their filmmaking debut after being tutored by AR Murugadoss is Ajay, who is all excited to kickstart his horror film. Arulnidhi will play the lead role in the film and the female lead is yet to be finalized. The project will go on the floors from October.

“Arulnithi will be apt for this horror script and this will be a new genre that he has not tried so far. The other cast members are yet to be finalised. While I was working with Murugadoss sir on Thuppakki, I got to know Santosh Sivan’s associate cinematographer and editor Sreekar Prasad’s assistant. Both will be working with me as cinematographer and editor on this project,” reveals Ajay to a daily. Arulnidhi is currently awaiting the release of Naalu Policeum Nalla Irundha Oorum, a comedy film directed by Jaikrishna.
