It’s been a busy year for Arvind Swami, who got to work on multiple projects. He began the year with the release of Bogan, in which he shared screen space with Jayam Ravi again after Thani Oruvan. The film did lukewarm business at the box-office but Arvind’s performance was widely appreciated.
Since the release of Bogan, he has completed shooting for Sathuranga Vettai 2, Bhaskar Oru Rascal, the Tamil remake of Malayalam film Bhaskar The Rascal, and Vanangamudi. He finished work on these projects in quick succession and commenced work on the upcoming multi-starrer Naragasooran, which also stars Sundeep Kishan and Indrajith, earlier this week.
The film is being directed by Dhuruvangal 16 fame Karthick Naren, and the Roja actor is thrilled to work with him. On Friday, he tweeted: “Just finished my first shot for Naragasooran. Excited to work with such a young and unique talent, Karthick Naren. Watch out for him people.”
Tipped to be a supernatural thriller, the film is said to be the story of a fallen demon, going by the first poster of the film which was released not long ago. The film also stars Shriya Saran and Aathmika, who was recently seen in hit Tamil film Meesaya Murukku.
The project started rolling from September 15 in Ooty, and has been predominantly shot inside a house. It’s tipped to be a horror-thriller to be wrapped up in flat 45 days. Aathmika is said to be paired with Sundeep in the film. Apparently, Sundeep’s role was originally supposed to be played by Naga Chaitanya, who backed out in the last minute. The film is a multilingual project and will be released in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam. Ron Yohaan is composing the music.
