The makers announced the film last year, coinciding with Arya’s birthday. At the time, they suggested that it is a love story with a caption that read, “Love takes its first step.” It is worth noting that the Arjun Ashokan-Mamitha Baiju starrer Pranaya Vilasam is also a film that tells a story of romance involving two generations.
Arya 40 brings director Nikhil Muraly back together with his Pranaya Vilasam writers Jyothish M and Sunu AV. Filmmaker Halitha Shameem has also been credited as its dialogue and additional screenplay writer.
The film’s technical team includes composer GV Prakash. Reacting to Vaishnavi’s latest post, the composer wrote, “Song shoot ennada panreenga. Song edutheengala illaya,” playfully asking the cast whether they have filmed the song/s for the film. In response to GV Prakash, Arya wrote, “Brok hook step try panne bro,” hinting that they have attempted the now-popular dance step in the film.
On the technical front, Arya 40 also has cinematography by Jeeva Sankar, editing by Binu Napoleon, art director AR Mohan, and action choreographer Stunt Silva. The film’s makers are expected to announce a title and a release date soon.
