Release Year: 2004 Director: S. Shankar (Story & Screenplay) Cast: R. Madhavan, Bhavana, Prakash Raj, Vadivelu, S. V. Krishna Reddy Music: Devi Sri Prasad Genre: Romantic Drama / Comedy Plot Synopsis Arya tells the story of two roommates in Hyderabad: the serious, studious, and introverted Arjun (Madhavan) and his polar opposite—the boisterous, carefree, and endlessly optimistic Arya (Madhavan in a double role). The narrative takes a turn when Arjun falls in love with Geetha (Bhavana), a cheerful middle-class girl. However, Geetha mistakes Arya for the shy Arjun (due to a name mix-up) and begins writing love letters to "Arya" (the person), not realizing which Arya she is corresponding with.
★★★★☆ (4/5) – A joyful, heart-tugging ride that redefined the Tamil romantic hero. Final Take: If you haven’t seen Arya , you haven’t seen the blueprint for every happy-go-lucky, hopelessly romantic Tamil hero that followed. Watch it for Madhavan’s irresistible charm and the pure, unfiltered joy of loving without fear. tamil movie arya
