Krishna Kulasekaran (14 February, 1985) [1] credited as Krishna, is an Indian film actor.[2][3][4]

Early life

Krishna's father is film producer K.K.Sekar (Pattiyal Sekar) and his brother is noted film director, Vishnuvardhan.[5] He went to St. Bede's Anglo Indian Higher Secondary School in Chennai, studied at Loyola College and graduated with an MBA in finance in the United States.[6] He worked for a year and a half in the IT industry and started his own business that was doing well.[7] He has also undergone training in Jazz and worked as a dancer/choreographer before he left for US.[7]

Career

He first faced the camera for Mani Ratnam's Anjali [6] and later appeared in Iruvar and Santosh Sivan's The Terrorist.[8] He was also chosen to play the younger version of Rajinikanth's character in Thalapathi, but the character was later scrapped because it affected the film's length.[9]

He played his first lead role in Alibhabha, which was produced by his father.[10] The film met with favourable reviews, but was not a commercial success.[7] After his first film, he wanted to do a gangster film based on a true incident in North Madras, called Madras to be directed by Five Star Krishna, but it was shelved because of misunderstandings between the director and the producer.[7] His next two films Kattradhu Kalavu [11][12] and Kazhugu were also produced by his father.[13] In Kazhugu he played someone who recovers bodies of suicide victims who jump off a cliff.[14] It received positive response.[15][16]

After appearing in a brief role in Vallinam, he starred in RS Infotainment's horror comedy Yaamirukka Bayamey.[17] He has upcoming films Vizhithiru, Vanmam and Yatchan directed by his brother Vishnuvardhan.[18]
