The success of the film meant that he later remade it in Telugu as Donga Dongadi (2004) with a new cast. He subsequently went on to make Pori (2007) featuring Jiiva, and then took the opportunity of directing Ameer in Yogi (2009), his debut film as an actor, which took two years to make.[1]

His fifth directorial movie was Seedan (2011), a remake of the 2002 Malayalam film Nandanam, and the film featured Unni Mukundan and Ananya in the lead roles, while Dhanush made a guest appearance. He went on to help with the post-production of Velaiilla Pattadhari (2014) and also went on to write dialogues for Amma Kanakku (2016).[2][3]

He made his comeback to directing with the 2021 film Vellai Yaanai, a film starring Samuthirakani, Athmiya Rajan, and Yogi Babu. The film released live on Sun TV.
