BALA

Born in a small village near Madurai. Bala is a graduate in Tamil literature from American College Madurai.

Blala

After training as an assistant director under Balu Mahendra for five films all of which won National Awards, he broke into the Tamil film industry with “ Sethu” in 1999 which earned widespread critical appreciation and catapulted the leading man vikram into superstardom overnight.


Bala’s films often feature complex themes woven in seemingly simple plots. With a career spanning hearly a decade, he has garnered high acclaim and had been praised for handling serious issues whilst retaining the entertainment value in his films. His movies are generally made in the Tamil Language, but are usually also remade into other languages like Telegu and Hindi owing to their national appeal.




His three films have won 13 film fare Awards and “ Pithamagan” has the distinguished honor of being the only Tamil Movie to be awarded with 6 film fare Awards. Bala won the prestigious Kalaimamani Award from the state of Tamil Nadu in 2007.
His fourth films is “NAAN KADAVUL” starring Aarya, Pooja & others.
