July 12 is sure to be a super special day for all Shiva Rajkumar fans as the actor turns 60 on the day. For obvious reasons, the birthday will be marked with a slew of special announcements concerning his upcoming projects and one among them is music composer Arjun Janya’s directorial debut. According to the latest reports, the title of the film will be revealed on July 12 and to make things extra special, not one but three different superstars from South India will digitally launch the title.

The same report state that Telugu superstar Akkineni Nagarjuna will be launching the title along with his colleagues Prithviraj Sukumaran and Sivakarthikeyan, who are representing the Malayalam and Tamil film industries respectively. Shiva Rajkumar’s wife and producer Geetha Shiva Rajkumar too will grace the occasion and be part of the title-launch event.

Coming to the project, Arjun Janya becomes the latest entrant to the league of composers-turned-directors with the upcoming Shivanna project. Janya, a prolific and accomplished music composer in the Kannada Film Industry, has expressed his long desire to direct a film and hopefully with Shiva Rajkumar. In a recent interview with Cinema Express, Arjun Janya revealed that he has been a huge admirer of filmmakers like Mani Ratnam and always aspired to make films that caused a similar impact on the audience. His longtime wish, he adds, is finally about to come true with him encountering the right subject and Shivanna giving him the nod. The project is being bankrolled by Ramesh Reddy.

On the other hand, Shiva Rajkumar continues to be the most sought-after actor in the industry with a wide array of exciting projects. He is expected to start shooting for the Yogaraj Bhat film wherein he shares the screen space with dancing maestro Prabhudeva and is currently shooting for his 125th film, Vedha, with director A. Harsha. Alongside, he is starring in M.G. Srinivas’ heist-thriller Ghost which is likely to take off in the coming months and is also slated to headline Sachin B. Ravi’s superhero film.
