Archana Kottige to star as heroine in Aryann Santosh’s Dear Sathya

Aryann Santosh, who took a break from acting, is back with an image makeover. The seven-film-old actor and Bigg Boss contestant is currently focusing on his upcoming film, Dear Sathya. Fifty per cent of the film’s shoot has been completed, and the team is said to have put the schedule on halt for a month to finalise the heroine. They have now zeroed in on Archana Kottige, an alumnus of LV Prasad’s Acting School, who made her acting debut with the adventure drama, Aranyakanda.

Archana has joined the sets of Dear Sathya and completed three days of shooting. She started with the song portions today.

Dear Sathya is a revenge thriller, which is said to be based on a true incident. Shiva Ganesh, who made his directorial debut with Jigarthanda, is helming the project, which features Aryann as an action hero.

The team is now left with a 22-day shooting schedule to complete the movie, which is being made under the banner of Winterbridge Studios and Purple Rock Entertainment. It has Vinod Bharathi as the cinematographer and Sridhar Sambhram as the music composer.
