Arya as villain in Telugu!

Arya is all set to play the villain in the untitled Telugu film by Gunashekar, starring Allu Arjun in the lead. The handsome hunk, one of the most sought after stars in Kollywood after the release of Bala's 'Naan Kadavul' (' Nenu Devudni' in Telugu), has agreed to do the role as he has been offered a very challenging role.

The film has already started shooting at Ramoji Film City. Newcomer Bhanusri will play the female lead in the Danayya production.

Mani Sharma scores the music and Peter Hein will compose the fights. RD Rajashekar is the cameraman.

Arya starrer 'Sarvam', directed by Vishnuvardhan, is all set for release in Tamil Nadu. He plays an action hero in the film. In Vijay's upcoming period film, 'Madrasapattinam, Arya plays a Madrasi boy who loves an English 'memsaab'.
