Vinu Chakravarthy (15 December 1945 – 27 April 2017) was an Indian actor, screenwriter and director who is known for acting in more than 1000 movies predominantly in Tamil films mostly as a comedian, supporting actor or in a villainous role. The 2007 released Tamil movie Muni was his landmark 1000th film.[2]

Early life and education

Chakravarthy was born on 15 December 1945, in Usilampatti to Adimoola Thevar and Manjuvani Ammal. He studied at Wesley School, Royapettah and graduated in commerce from A. M. Jain College. He was the eldest son among other 3 sons and a daughter.

Career

On completion of his education, Chakravarthy worked as a Reserve Sub-Inspector at the Ice House police station for six months before joining the Southern Railways where he worked for four years. Out of passion for acting, he joined drama troupe and started acting in plays and wrote scripts too.[3]

Chakravarthy was working as a script writer for Kannada director Puttanna Kanagal when he was noticed by film producer Tiruppur Mani who, in 1977, gave him a role in the Kannada film Parasangada Gendethimma which was later remade into Tamil as Rosappu Ravikkaikari (1979) with Chakravarthy returning. Since then, Chakravarthy has starred in over 1,000 films in four South Indian languages including 900 in Tamil, 30 in Malayalam. He also directed movies on his own and is credited with introducing Silk Smitha.[4]

Controversies

Chakravarthy criticised television and film producer Ekta Kapoor for her depiction of Silk Smitha in The Dirty Picture, a biographical film on the actress. He also expressed displeasure over Kapoor's choice of casting. He also said Smitha had wide expressive, inviting eyes, which Vidya Balan does not have.[4]
