THE GODFATHERS!

They say live and let live. There are numerous instances to quote from the history of Tamil cinema where mentors played a significant role in their juniors’ lives and careers bringing them to the fore after realizing their potential. These mentors are usually directors since they have an upper hand with regard to the deciding factors of the movie. Here, we take a look at some of those directors who is in the process of providing the required push for their assistants’ career (or for that matter who have already done that).
Shankar
Shankar
Shankar is one of the forerunners of the ‘production bug’ that has bitten quite a few directors in Tamil cinema nowadays. His S Pictures has produced critically acclaimed movies and they have done their bit of traveling across the globe in many international movie festivals. He produced Kadhal and gave Balaji Sakthivel a fresh lease of career. Subsequently Veyil, directed by Vasantha Balan came in for critical acclaim followed by the supernatural thriller Eeram directed by Arivazhagan. All these now-successful directors were once Shankar’s assistants.
