Atlee, the director of megahits like as ‘Mersal’, ‘Bigil’, and most recently ‘Jawan’, revealed that he already has a gigantic script ready for Tamil actor Ajith Kumar. The filmmaker expressed his admiration for the performer and expressed his desire to collaborate with him.
Atlee has been in the news for quite some time, given that his recent film starring Shah Rukh Khan was a great box office success and earned him a substantial chunk of money. With the success of Jawan, Atlee has become one of India's most sought-after directors.

Atlee said to Indian anchor Gobinath that he has a script ready for Ajith Kumar and is just waiting for a call from him to do it. The filmmaker stated that he attempted to contact Suresh Chandra (Ajith Kumar's manager) about narrating the film to the actor, but it has yet to come together.
He went on to say that if the picture does come together, it would be a tremendous hit in theatres.
Furthermore, the filmmaker discussed how he met Ajith Kumar for the first time. The filmmaker stated that actress Nayanthara introduced him to Ajith Kumar during the filming of their 2013 film ‘Aarambam’. The actor looked at him and asked “Have you finished your schooling? Do complete it okay.”
In addition, the director stated that Ajith Kumar phoned him and consoled him during a difficult moment in his life, always being a gentleman.
Atlee is riding high after the success of his last film, ‘Jawan’, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Nayanthara, and Deepika Padukone. But the director has paused work for a moment to be with his child.
