Sundar C.

Sundar C. popped into the world on January 21, 1968, straight outta Erode, Tamil Nadu. He’s one of those big names in the Tamil film industry—writer, director, producer, kinda wears all the hats. You probably remember his work from movies like Aambala (2015), that full-on masala entertainer with loads of laughs, action, and family drama jammed in. Or maybe Winner (2003) rings a bell, another riotous ride that leaned hard on comedy and over-the-top moments. The dude just knows how to serve up crowd-pleasers, no shame in that. He’s got this knack for blending slapstick with a bit of sentiment, and honestly, his films rarely take themselves too seriously. That’s half the fun. And now there’s Gangers (2025) on the horizon—everyone’s got their ears perked up wondering what kind of chaos or comedy he’ll cook up next. Off-screen, Sundar’s been married to Khushbu Sundar since March 9, 2000. Yep, Khushbu—the actress-turned-politician. They’ve been a pretty solid power couple in the South Indian cinema scene, and they’ve got two kids running around, probably inheriting some of that movie magic. Sundar’s reputation? Kinda like that friend who always brings the party: dependable for a good time, not exactly the artsy type, but he’s got his finger on what the audience wants. People might poke fun at his over-the-top style, but hey, the box office numbers speak for themselves. He’s been around for decades, and he’s still not slowing down.
