Arjun, who was last seen in the recently released Vana Yuddham, will be seen donning the director's hat again, after a long time! He made his directorial debut with 1992 film Sevagan, and later directed Madrasi, in 2006. Arjun is all set to act and direct in a film titled Common Man (CM), which is to be produced by Aascar Films.

Confirming the news, Arjun said, "Yes, I would  be playing the lead role  and also directing the film titled CM. The film will be produced by Ravichandran, he liked the script, when I narrated it to him. So far I’ve directed 9 films, CM would be my 10th directorial venture in Tamil. CM doesn’t mean ‘chief minister’, as commonly referred. In this film I refer it to the ‘common man’ and I play that common man in CM."

The actor will next be seen playing one of the 3 lead roles in director Vasanth's Moondru Per Moondru Kadal.
