Karthi is fervently awaiting the release of his upcoming movie Kaithi, which has been creating quite a buzz right from the time it was announced. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj of Maanagaram fame, Kaithi is said to be an intense action thriller with no heroines or songs. Meanwhile, the director of the National Award winning movie Joker - Raju Murugan, is currently awaiting the release of his upcoming movie Gypsy, which has Jiiva in the lead. This movie, said to be an intense romantic, road movie, has a lot of expectations riding on it as Jiiva is badly in need of a hit and the track record of the director suggests this could be the movie that gives it to him! Also starring Natasha Singh, Sunny Wayne, Lal Jose and Susheela Raman, Gypsy is Raju Murugan's third directorial venture. Currently, there have been reports that this director would next be working with Karthi, in his new project.
