Telugu film Varudu, in which Arya plays the villain, was released a few days ago. When the reporters asked Arya on why he decided to play the baddie when he is a well-accepted hero in Kollywood, he replied that being an actor he should not look for specific roles and end up being stereotypical.


Soon after the release of Varudu, which has Allu Arjun and Banu Mehra in the lead roles, Arya filed a complaint at the Nadigar Sangam that his salary was not settled by producer Dhanayya even after repeated requests. This complaint was taken up by the Nadigar Sangam and its president Sarathkumar held discussions with the producer to resolve the issue. Following the Sangam’s intervention, Arya’s dues were settled.
