Ameer is prepared to start out his next. The director whose 'Aadhi Bhagavan' is yet to release, will commence his forthcoming venture soon. If sources are to be believed, it's been titled 'Jihad'. "Though the title is Jihad, the movie may have no controversies. It's going to not hurt anyone's sentiments. It is going to be a clean entertainer with a pleasant message," say sources, adding: "Besides wielding the megaphone, Ameer may even play the lead role." The 'Paruthi Veeran' maker, who was set to play the lead role in Bharathiraja's comeback venture 'Annakodiyum Kodiveeranum', is not any more a part of the project now. Sources say he would utilize the dates he allotted to 'Annakodiyum....' to 'Jihad'. Ameer is within the news for the past few months, ever for the reason that tussle over wages between Film Employees Federation of South India and Tamil Film Producers Council intensified. The actor-director stood at the side of workers.
