From Enakkul Oruvan (2015) to Sarpatta Parambarai (2021). Enakkul Oruvan (2015, 7.5/10) is the underseen one in the catalogue. Sarpatta Parambarai is the one most viewers reach for.

It started with Enakkul Oruvan (2015).

The shape of the work

The 2010s belonged to Enakkul Oruvan; the 2020s to Sarpatta Parambarai. Never on the same side of the camera — John Vijay actor, Santhosh Narayanan music composer, across all 3 films. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.

The 2020s brought 1 film together, anchored by Sarpatta Parambarai (8.3/10).
