Arya’s upcoming film Teddy, directed by Shakti Soundar Rajan, went on floors yesterday in Chennai. Pegged as an action-thriller, it also stars Sayyeshaa as the female lead. This is the second film which will have Arya and Sayyeshaa sharing screen space after Ghajinikanth, and the first one after their wedding.

Teddy, also featuring Sathish and Karunakaran, will have music by D Imman and cinematography by Yuva, who has earlier worked on Raja Ranguski and Burma. Produced by Studio Green, and set to be shot in several countries, the film will have stunt choreography by Sakthi Saravanan (Thimiru Pudichavan, Kaali) and editing by Sivantheeswaran (Theeran Adhigaram Ondru).

Meanwhile, Arya is currently awaiting the release of Magamuni and Kaapaan. Shakti Soundar, on the other hand, made Tik Tik Tik last year, which was promoted as India’s first space film.
