Career

He initially began his career as a dialogue writer to film director Dharani and penned dialogues for the Vikram-starrer Dhill (2001), Dhool (2003) and Vijay-starrer Ghilli (2004), as well as for Madhesh's Madhurey (2004).[1] Since then, he has intermittently been credited as a dialogue writer, most notably working on Ajith Kumar's Veeram (2014) which was directed by Siva.[2]

Bharathan made his directorial debut with the thriller film Azhagiya Tamil Magan (2007) starring Vijay and Shriya Saran in the lead roles. Despite having a renowned technical crew, including music composed by A. R. Rahman, the film became an average at the box office.[3] His second film, the thriller Athithi (2014) featuring Nandha and Nikesh Ram, opened to mixed reviews and had a low key release.[4] He later worked with Vijay again in Bairavaa (2017), with the film taking a strong opening at the box office.[5][6]
