Dhanush Says He Wants to Direct Pawan Kalyan—Again!
Power Star Pawan Kalyan commands a massive fan following across South India, and now, a National Award-winning Tamil star has once again expressed his admiration, not just as a fan, but as a filmmaker.
At the Kuberaa pre-release event held at JRC Convention in Hyderabad, Tamil actor-director Dhanush made headlines by revealing his wish to direct Pawan Kalyan. The moment came during an interaction with host Suma Kanakala, when she asked him if there’s someone he dreams of working with behind the camera.
“I would love to direct Pawan Kalyan garu,” Dhanush said, drawing loud cheers from the audience.
This isn’t the first time Dhanush has shared his desire to collaborate with Pawan Kalyan. He had mentioned the same in the past, and with this second declaration, fans from both sides are once again buzzing with excitement, hoping for the dream project to materialize.
Dhanush, the Director: Building a Strong Track Record
Known for his versatile acting, Dhanush has also carved a niche as a director. His debut film, Pa Paandi, was critically acclaimed, and his follow-ups, Raayan and the upcoming Idly Kadai, have continued to build hype around his vision as a filmmaker. He also directed NEEK, showcasing a flair for unique storytelling and emotional depth.
With Pawan Kalyan known for his dynamic screen presence and powerful persona, a Dhanush-Pawan collaboration would be nothing short of a cinematic spectacle, blending Tamil sensibilities with Telugu mass appeal.
For now, it’s a wish waiting to be fulfilled. But one thing’s certain: when two stars of this magnitude decide to team up, South Indian cinema will never be the same again.
