Profile

Tamil cine star Jamshad Cethirakath, better known as Arya, had a slew of releases this year, including a Malayalam movie Double Barrel, which received critical acclaim. His thriller Purampokku Engira Podhuvudamai did well at the box office as did Vasuvum Saravananum Onna Padichavanga, which Arya also produced. Last December, PepsiCo India roped him in as the brand ambassador for Mountain Dew, in a bid to strengthen the brand's presence in South India.
Fast Fact: The film Vasuvum Saravananum Onna Padichavanga is Arya's 25th film in a career which began a decade ago.
