Actor Arya is gearing up for his next film which will go on floors from March. Director Raghava will be helming this film that is set against the backdrop of forest areas. We hear that the entire film will be shot at Athirapally, Kodaikanal and a few other interior forest areas. Apparently, Arya plays the role of a tribal man in the film for which he has been doing some serious preparations. Kathakali girl Catherine will play the leading lady in this flick and we hear that the film has been titled Thanikattu Raja, a yesteryear superhit by Superstar Rajinikanth.

This project is bankrolled by his good friend Jiiva under his Super Good Films banner.
