Speculation is swirling in Kollywood over who will direct Ajith’s next film. Following the success of Good Bad Ugly, Ajith is eager to take on back-to-back projects. Rumors suggest Dhanush might direct him next, but Ajith's hefty salary demand  reportedly ₹250 crore has caused hesitation among producers. Only Mythri Movie Makers seem capable of handling such a budget, giving them a 90% chance of bagging the project.However, Ajith is also considering giving director Adhik Ravichandran another chance. Yet, a past conflict between Adhik and Mythri during the Good Bad Ugly shoot, over budget overspending and delays, may complicate this. As a solution, Ajith is reportedly planning two parallel films one with Adhik under a new banner, and another with Mythri helmed by a different director.
