New Journey of Star Descendants
In the film industry, star offspring usually try their luck as heroes and heroines in front of the camera. But now a new trend has started. Star kids are going behind the camera and proving their talent as directors.
Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan shocked everyone by becoming a director. He chose a controversial subject as his debut film 'Bads of Bollywood' and achieved success. He is currently preparing for the second part of this series.
Tamil actor Vijay's son is also preparing to prove his mettle as a director. Unlike his father Vijay, Jason Sanjay is turning into an actor like his grandfather S.A. Chandrasekhar. Talented hero Sundeep Kishan is directing his first film as a hero. This film, which is being produced by Lyca Productions, has already completed most of its shooting.
The latest is Suriya and Jyothika's daughter Diya, who is also ready to show her talent as a director. 17-year-old Diya has directed a 13-minute docu-drama called 'Leading Light'. The film, which shows the struggle of women technicians who have gained recognition in the lighting department, has been selected for the Oscar-qualifying run.
In Tollywood too, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja's son Mahadhan is taking steps towards directing. It is remarkable that star heirs are showing their passion for directing rather than acting. It can be said that this new generation's effort is likely to bring a new impetus to the film world.
