Film career

He first appeared in a Telugu Film titled Vidyardhi (2004). His first entry into the Tamil Film industry was with the film Jithan (2005) which was a Box Office super hit, starring Sarath Kumar as an important character in the movie and Pooja Umashankar.

He began to sign many films on a signing spree but his latest three releases in 2006, Madhu, Jerry and Nee Venunda Chellam did not do well as expected. His next film Madurai Veeran had a successful time at the box office once again.
