Lokesh Kanagaraj is known for his impressive filmmaking skills. The director’s last film, Leo, starring Thalapathy Vijay, dominated the country’s box offices. He is again in the news, but not for his direction. Kanagaraj recently made his acting debut opposite Shruti Haasan. While he did not star in a movie, he is debuting in the music video for “Inimel,” which follows the romantic story of a couple.
About a week ago, Shruti Haasan dropped a poster of the song featuring her and Lokesh Kanagaraj. In the poster, the on-screen couple could be seen playing a video game while donning traditional attire. Apart from a few details, she did not unveil Lokesh Kanagaraj’s acting skills.

As fans were waiting to watch Lokesh Kanagaraj act in the video, its teaser was recently released. In the short clip from the “Inimel” music video, Lokesh and Shruti could be seen playing a couple in love. From teasing each other to cuddling, the song represents the dynamics of every love story.
However, what has left everyone stunned is the director’s acting skills. His fans are thrilled to see how talented he is. Many are even demanding a full-fledged movie starring Lokesh Kanagaraj.
Kamal Haasan turned lyricist for “Inimel” and even produced it under his banner Raaj Kamal Films International. On the other hand, Shruti Haasan composed the track’s music and gave the vocals. The full video of the track will be released on March 25.
On the work front, Lokesh Kanagaraj is currently working on his first movie with superstar Rajinikanth. The film is tentatively titled Thalaivar 171, and the buzz around it is massive. Moreover, the director recently teased Leo 2 with Vijay amid reports about the latter quitting the film industry. More sequels to a few other directorials are also in the talks.
