He told Express: “Yes, I am turning a director. I have almost finalised the story and script. I am in talks with actors. I hope to announce the cast very soon,” he adds.

The actor also snubbed reports that Jayaram will play a prominent role in  the movie. “I haven’t finalised the cast. I too read such reports. They  aren’t true,” he added.
