After playing the menacing villain role opposite Thala Ajith in director Gautham Menon's 'Yennai Arindhaal', Arun Vijay became a much sought after actor in other languages too. He has acted as villain in the Telugu film 'Bruce Lee' with Ram Charan Teja and Puneeth Rajkumar starrer Kannada film 'Chakravyuha' which is in its shooting stage currently.

Arun has not acted in any Tamil film after 'Yennai Arindhaal' that released in February 2015. He had completed shooting for director Rathna Siva's 'Vaa Deal' which has still not hit the screens.

Now its time for the charming and talented actor to return to his home turf. The actor has just signed up to play the lead role in the Tamil film to be directed by Arivazhagan of 'Eeram' and 'Vallinam' fame. The acclaimed filmmaker is currently busy with the post production of 'Aarathu Sinam' starring Arulnithi and Aishwarya Rajesh in lead roles. After the release of this film he is expected to start working on his film with Arun Vijay.

Currently the process of finalizing the cast and crew for the Arivazhagan-Arun Vijay film is underway. We can expect an official announcement regarding the project very soon.
