Biography
N. Santhanam is an Indian actor and film producer who rose to fame as a comedian on Star Vijay's Lollu Sabha, where he led spoofs of Tamil films. Born 21 January 1980, his early film work included a supporting role in Silambarasan's Manmadhan (2004) and critically praised performances in Sachein (2005) and Polladhavan (2007). He stepped into a leading role in Shankar's production Arai En 305-il Kadavul (2008), establishing his brand of insult comedy as a reliable box-office draw. His collaborations with director M.

L. Vijay, Siva, and Sundar C. By the early 2010s, his consistent performances and box-office appeal earned him the industry designation "Comedy Superstar". In 2012, he founded Handmade Films and produced Kanna Laddu Thinna Aasaiya (2013), which became commercially successful. He took a second leading role in the action comedy Vallavanukku Pullum Aayudham (2014).
