Tamil filmmaker A.R. Murugadoss, known for films such as "Ghajini" and "Thuppakki", Friday said he is working on a script for actor Arya.
"Arya has been asking me to direct him for many years, but I have asked him to act in my home production first. Since has acted in my production venture ('Raja Rani'), I have started working on a script for him," Murugadoss told reporters at the audio launch of Tamil romantic-comedy "Raja Rani".
Directed by debutant Atlee Kumar, "Raja Rani" is jointly produced by Murugadoss and Fox Star Studios. The multi-starrer film features Arya, Jai, Nayanthara, Nazriya Nizam, Sathyan, Sathyaraj and Santhanam in important roles.
Speaking at the event, Arya said: "I have always wanted to work with Murugadoss sir. I hope I get that opportunity soon".
G.V. Prakash Kumar has composed the music for "Raja Rani", which has cinematography by George Williams.
Meanwhile, Murugadoss is busy with the Hindi remake of "Thuppakki" with Akshay Kumar. It is being rumoured that he is likely to team up with actor Vijay soon.
