Résumé
Vishnuvardhan is an Indian film director, producer and screenwriter who predominantly works in the Tamil cinema.
A one-time associate of Santosh Sivan, he made his directorial debut in 2003 with Kurumbu, which did not fare well at the box office. However, his subsequent films, Arinthum Ariyamalum (2005), Pattiyal (2006), Billa (2007), Panjaa (2011) with Pawan kalyan as main lead and Arrambam (2013) went on to become highly successful ventures, turning him into a household name in Tamil Nadu. He made his hindi film directorial debut with Shershaah (2021), for which he received positive reviews.
Vishnuvardhan was born and raised in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. His father is Kulasekaran, a businessman, who later became a producer of Tamil films. He has a younger brother Krishna Kulasekaran who is an actor in the Tamil film industry. Vishnuvardhan went to St. Bede's Anglo Indian Higher Secondary School, Chennai and studied visual communication at the Loyola College, Chennai.
Vishnuvardhan and his brother used to participate in extra-curricular activities like dance and drama in school. When director Mani Ratnam was looking for children to cast in his film Anjali, his school suggested his name and he shot for a dance sequence in the film with his brother and other children. He later appeared in Sathriyan (as the young Vijayakanth) and Iruvar by Mani Ratnam again. While in college, Santosh Sivan, cinematographer of Mani Ratnam's films, called Vishnuvardhan to act in his directorial The Terrorist. Vishnuvardhan said "I was influenced and inspired by the works of Mani Ratnam and Santosh Sivan. Watching them create magic on screen fascinated me and I wanted to learn filmmaking". While working for The Terrorist, he expressed his desire to Sivan, that he would like to assist him, and Sivan accepted him as an apprentice and later as an associate.He worked for seven years as an assistant director to Sivan in Mumbai besides playing roles in his films Fiza, Malli and Asoka.
