A small chat with Arya
Tamil Actor AryaArya is currently acting in various Tamil films including Erandam Ulagam and Settai. In a small chat with him:
Selvaraghavan making is of a different genre. Will it suit you?
Why not? How long will I
continue to be like this? That is why I have chosen this. I have never
paved my path. All this happened because of my first film director
Jeeva. After completing my computer education, I was supposed to go to
America but director Jeeva caught hold of me and asked me to act in
Ullam Ketkumae. He said, "Do this film well and you will like cinema." I
never knew anything. I did what he said. After this I got very much
interested in cinema as mentioned by him. Instead of going to America, I
became a full time actor. I feel that I should act in good films.
Erandam Ulagam will be definitely such a one. I am confident that I will
be going to next level after this film. I like the way Selvaraghavan
makes this film. I have gained lots of experience. I am fully satisfied
with him and his film. This film will be new to Tamil cinema.
