Actor Arjun is gearing up to get behind the camera once again. Having directed films such as Sevagan , Madarasi , Prathap and Jai Hind , he’s all set to make Jai Hind 2 , in which he also plays the lead. However, he clarifies that the film is not a sequel to Jai Hind and will have no semblance to it. “The film shows how our education system is misused by a few unscrupulous people. It’s a trilingual, to be released in Tamil, Telugu and Kannada. I dedicate the film to the media and our former President Abdul Kalam. He has always stressed the need for India to grow as a super power and how education is a must for all,” says Arjun. Surveen Chawla who’s worked with him in Moondru Per Moondru Kaadhal is paired with him.
