Challenging Star Darshan, who has had a dream run at the box office in the past couple of years with films like Krantiveera Sangoli Rayanna, Sarathy, Chingaari, Bul Bul and Brundaavana, is in no mood to slow down. The actor, who is currently working on the film Ambareesha, in which he co-stars Priya Mani, is already moving on to his next. Tomorrow, February 16, is Darshan's birthday and the actor will celebrate it with the launch of his new film
Airavataa, directed by
AP Arjun of
Addhuri fame.
The actor will be paired with
Ninnindale fame Erica Fernandez in the film produced by Sandesh Nagaraj.
Incidentally, Darshan is just a few films shy of completing a golden century as hero. While his filmography credits him with over 50 films, some of the roles have been cameos, which the actor does not account in reaching his personal milestone. His 50th film will be directed by his brother Dinakar Toogudeepa, and will be a home production. The last time Dinakar directed his brother was for
Sarathy.
