Tamil actor Arya on headlining the Malayalam film, ‘Ananthan Kaadu’
Tamil actor Arya discusses his transition to a lead role in the upcoming Malayalam film 'Ananthan Kaadu'. He highlights the film's bilingual nature and his personal connection to the character, who is a Tamil speaker living in Thiruvananthapuram.
Why it matters
The film represents a significant cross-industry collaboration in Indian cinema, bridging the Tamil and Malayalam film markets.
The Malayalam film Ananthan Kaadu holds a special place in actor Arya’s career. This will be his first full-length, lead role in a Malayalam film, 20-odd years after his Tamil debut. He explains, “For the films I was part of earlier, I would be on shorter schedules of five to eight days . My commitment then was with Tamil films because I was doing those primarily, and Malayalam films were something I did occasionally.”
