Arinthum Ariyamalum (English: Knowingly and Unknowingly) is a 2005 Indian Tamil-language crime-drama film written and directed by Vishnuvardhan that stars Prakash Raj along with newcomers Arya, Navdeep and Sameksha in lead and Adithya Menon and Krishna in supporting roles. The film's music is composed by top director, Yuvan Shankar Raja. 'Punnagai Poo' Gheetha, a popular RJ at the Malaysian radio station THR.fm Raaga, produced the film, becoming the first female Tamil film producer and first person outside of India to produce an Indian film. The film released on 20 May 2005 and became a blockbuster completing 175-day run at the box office. Upon release, the film was dubbed into Telugu and released as Kalisunte. The film eventually went on to fetch Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut – South for Arya.
There is the innocent Brahmin-boy Satya (Navdeep) who comes from Nagercoil to Chennai to join an engineering college. And then his problems begin one by one when he encounters the dreaded don Adhi Narayanan (Prakash Raj), who is actually Satya's father and his hot-blooded son Kutty (Arya). Satya's girlfriend Sandhya (Sameksha) is accidentally wounded in a shootout between Adhi's gang and his rivals. Satya, on the prodding of ACP Thiagarajan (Adithya Menon) is all set to identify Kutty as the culprit.
