He is known more for his camera work, especially
Sivaji, than his directorial skills. Having
made only one movie so far, one gets the feeling
that he has not given his skills enough space
to shine through.
Last
Film: Kanaa Kandein - Most striking
was Anand’s casting; putting Prithviraj
in a villain role was an experiment that worked
wonders, both for the movie and the actor. The
expectations his upcoming movie, Ayan has generated
talks volume about his brand value.
Box Office Verdict: Average
Upcoming: Ayan

Tamil cinema’s family man, making movies
that everyone can watch and enjoy, invariably
carrying a message. His simple style of film
making never fails to touch a chord, especially
Thavamai Thavamirindhu.
Last
Film: Mayakkannadi - a movie that was
meant as a firebrand for youngsters, carrying
a very pertinent message. But it failed to create
any ripples.
Box Office Verdict: Flop
Upcoming: Pokkisham

He
made what one has to call a dream debut. Subramaniapuram
has redefined Tamil cinema perceptions. Set in
Madurai of the 1980s, every scene reflects the
efforts and skills of the director. Having apprenticed
under Bala and Ameer, Sasi Kumar is destined for
big things.
Last
Film: Subramaniapuram - Not only did
the movie become a hit, it also stood strong in
the face of biggies like Kuselan and Sathyam and
emerged unscathed, testimonial to the film’s
top notch quality.
Box Office Verdict: Hit
Upcoming: Unannounced.

The
commercial king of Tamil cinema who always knows
the pulse of the audience. One of the few directors
to have worked with a wide range of actors - from
the Superstar to Sarath Kumar to Silambarasan.
Last
Film: Dasavatharam - one of the greatest
milestones in Indian cinema. And one of the most
complex projects, executed with a masterstroke.
Box Office Verdict: Blockbuster
Upcoming: Untitled venture with
Sarath Kumar

The
silent killer in Kollywood. His films arrive quietly
but stay on for a long time. Just a couple of
films old and he has already proved his worth.
A director to watch out for.
