Biography
Shankar Dayal was an Indian screenwriter and film director who worked primarily in Tamil cinema. Born January 1, 1970, in India, he made his directorial debut with Saguni in 2012. His career centered on examining societal collapse and the political landscape—themes that grounded his visual storytelling. He died December 19, 2024. As a Life Path 1, Dayal embodied the innovator's drive: pioneering narratives, breaking new ground in Tamil cinema's treatment of power structures. Screenwriters construct the skeleton of film; Dayal used that skeleton to anatomize systems—governance, social hierarchy, collective suffering. His gender: male. His nationality: Indian. Though his filmography remains modest in volume, his thematic signature—the intersection of the personal and the political—marked him as a director unafraid of friction.
