Arya says no to Boopathi Pandian

We heard sometime back that director Boopathi Pandian, who was about to make a film with Vishal, parted ways with the actor and was planning to start the project with Arya playing the lead role.

However, Arya has politely refused the offer, since he didn’t want to snatch a role penned for his good friend Vishal. Remember both are close pals for more than a decade and have acted together in Bala’s ‘Avan Ivan’.

“Boopathi Pandian narrated the story to me and it was interesting too. But it’s not ethical for me to do the film, since the script was written with Vishal in the mind,” says the ‘Arindhum Ariyamalum’ actor.

Arya is riding high on a success wave thanks to back to back hits with ‘Madraspattinam’ and ‘Boss Engira Baskaran’. “I am eagerly looking forward for the release of ‘Avan Ivan’. Bala sir is a genius,” he says.
