Actor Sivakarthikeyan continues to be an inspiring personality for every ordinary artist aiming to hustle big in the industry one day. The Namma Veettu Pillai actor had his last outing in the likes of the romantic comedy drama Prince which hit the theaters under the direction of story teller K V Anudeep with Ukrainian actress Maria Ryaboshapka in the female lead part. The movie made its way to the theaters amid high expectations among fans of the actor. Unfortunately, it opened up to mixed reviews and did not live up to the expectations. But despite that, it managed to do well in the box office. The actor who is basking in the success of Prince, is now busy shooting for his upcoming Tamil Telugu bilingual drama titled Maaveeran. The Telugu version of the project is christened Mahaveerudu. Film maker Madonne Ashwin of Mandela fame has written, and directed the entertainer. The movie went on floors last year with a small pooja ceremony. Director Shankar, father of actress Aditi Shankar graced the event.
