But Ajith says he’s in no tearing hurry to see them all up on celluloid. “Let’s see how the first film is received,” says Ajith, who adds that his family has been quite encouraging. “Initially, my dad was taken aback when I told him I wanted to be a part of films. But he soon came to terms with it,” he says.
“I saw Aji’s Nallavan and loved it. I approached him and conveyed my interest in working with him,” shares Ajith. “I am a complete movie buff. I have been interested in movies since childhood,” he adds.
The youngster is leaving no stone unturned to ensure that the audience is impressed. “I have been working out regularly. Though, there have been no acting classes as such. I am quite confident about facing the camera,” he says. Oberoi revolves around the life of a business tycoon and his son.
The action-oriented film to be made in Malayalam and Tamil will have Ajith playing the lead in both the versions.
