Aditi Shankar comes onboard Sivakarthikeyan-starrer ‘Maaveeran’
The unit of director Madonne Ashwin’s upcoming film, ‘Maaveeran’, featuring actor Siva Karthikeyan in the lead, on Wednesday announced that actress Aditi Shankar, who is also the daughter of ace director Shankar, had come onboard the project.
Taking to Twitter, Shanthi Talkies, the production house of the film, said: “We are glad to have Aditi Shankar onboard! ‘Maaveeran'”
Aditi, who is also a doctor and a singer apart from being an actress, has got this opportunity even before the release of her first film, ‘Viruman’, which features actor Karthi in the lead. ‘Maaveeran’, a bilingual that is being made simultaneously in Tamil and Telugu, has been titled ‘Mahaveerudu’ in Telugu.
Cinematography for the film is by Vidhu Ayyanna and music is by Bharath Sankar. Editing for the film is by Philomin Raj and art direction is by Kumar Gangappan. Interestingly, the stunt director for the project seems to have changed. While Phoenix Prabhu was named the stunt director at the time of announcement of the film’s titles, the production house has now named well-known stunt man, Yannick Ben, as the film’s stunt choreographer.

Bigg Boss fame Ajaz Khan polls fewer votes than even NOTA in Versova
Ajaz Khan, the Bigg Boss fame actor-turned-politician, suffered an embarrassing defeat in the Maharashtra Assembly elections, where he polled just 155 from the Versova constituency. Remarkably, even the NOTA (None of the Above) option has outperformed him, securing 1,298 votes.
Fielded by Chandrashekhar Azad’s Azad Samaj Party (Kanshi Ram), Ajaz Khan failed to translate his social media popularity – a staggering 5.6 million Instagram followers – into votes.
His political debut at the state level appears to have fallen flat, much like his earlier foray into the Lok Sabha elections. Khan had contested from the Mumbai North Central seat during the general elections but failed to make an impact there as well.
The Versova constituency, meanwhile, witnessed a fierce contest between Haroon Khan of the Shiv Sena (UBT) and Bharati Lavekar of the BJP. Haroon Khan, however, won the seat with a margin of over 1,600 votes.
While Ajaz Khan has struggled to breach even the 150-vote mark, the Mahayuti alliance is surging towards a dominant victory across the state, projected to win over 221 seats. In contrast, the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), comprising Congress, Shiv Sena (UBT), and Sharad Pawar’s NCP faction, appears headed for a humiliating defeat.
