Chennai, Mar 22 (IANS): Tamil director Boopathy Pandian can't stop raving about actor Arjun Sarja's daughter, debutant Aishwarya Arjun, who will be seen in upcoming Tamil comedy "Pattathu Yaanai".

"Not all star kids are blessed with acting prowess, but Aishwarya is an exception. I believe she has inherited acting skills from her father. She pulls of the most difficult scenes with ease and confidence. I'm extremely happy with the way she handles her role", Boopathy told IANS.

"What is impressive is that she agreed to play a school going character in her debut. I don't think the daughter of any other star actor would agree to play such a role in her first film. She is a very supportive actress and picks up quickly," he added.

She is paired opposite Vishal Krishna in the film, which also features Santhanam, Sita, Jagan, Mano Bala and Karthik in important roles.

"The shooting is progressing at brisk pace in places such as Karaikudi, Madurai, Trichy and few other places. It's a laugh riot and I'm sure audience will love it," said Boopathy.

S. Michael Rayappan has produced the film, which has music by S.S Thaman.
