Today is July 28, and Dhanush celebrates his 28th birthday today.
And the big news is that he is starting his new untitled film today which will be directed by his wife Aishwarya.
Dhanush is in an enviable position today. He is the youngest ever actor who has bagged the prestigious national award in the 'Best Actor' category for Aadukalam.
However his media image is that of a person who is 'forlorn, distant and withdrawn'. This is the image that Dhanush has also with colleagues in the industry.
But his close friends vouch that he is funny, charming and very engaging. He dotes on his wife Aishwarya and sons Yatra and Linga, around whom his life revolves.
Aishwarya's film will most probably have Sruthi Haasan in the lead though no official confirmation has been announced.
Music is by a debutant while camera is by Velraj. A song was recorded on Wednesday,which was sung by Vijay Yesudas and Shweta Mohan.
So what are the birthday plans for the actor? He will be shooting today in and around Chennai and a quiet family get-together in the night.
He will be meeting his fans on Friday and spending time with them, says his media manager.

Bharath a promising young actor is peeved with the raw deal he got doing Krish directed Vaanam.
In an interview to a Tamil publication, Bharath has blasted STR for hogging the show and cutting his role!
Says Bharath: "I had a very bad experience doing Vaanam. It was started as a multi starrer and with equal footage for all the four principal characters in the film. But by the time the film was
released only one character was highlighted. It was promoted as a solo hero film. Now I have got wiser and will think twice before jumping into a multi –starrer."

It looks like Aadi discount sales this Friday at the Tamil Nadu box-office!
Four Tamil films are releasing on July 29, in the month of Aadi considered to be inauspicious by the superstitious industry.
Most of these films were in the box waiting to be sold and also trying to get playing time in theatres.
And with no big releases during Aadi, this is the best chance for these small films to get a theatrical release.
The four films are- Bodinaykur Ganesan, where choreographer turned action hero Hari Kumar tries his luck again. Karungali is another action cum titillating masala stuff.
Markendyan is the launch film of Sabarish, son of action director FEFSI Vijayan.
Veppam is lady director Anjana's debut film as director produced by Gautham Menon and features Nani, Karthik Kumar and Nithya Menen.
All these films have announced their theatre listings which include multiplexes.
Asks trade expert Sekhar : "None of these films have any sort of publicity, hardly any buzz about them. The audiences themselves are confused about these films and all of them seem to be in the action genre.
