Actor-filmmaker Prabhudheva says his busy career in Bollywood has kept him away from Tamil filmdom. But he says he plans to direct a Tamil movie soon.

“I’m not avoiding the Tamil film industry because I’m making Hindi films. It’s just that I’m extremely busy with Bollywood commitments. As soon as I complete shooting them, I wish to direct a Tamil film,” Prabhu told IANS.

Known for films such as “Rowdy Rathore” and “R… Rajkumar”, Prabhudheva has directed Tamil films such as “Pokkiri”, “Villu” and “Vedi”.

On the acting front, Prabhudheva has “ABCD 2”, in which he plays an important role.

“It’s fun matching steps with younger actors. It gives me the confidence to keep going,” he added.
