First Movie: Aasai Aasaiyai
Jeeva is an upcoming actor. He is the son of known
Indian film producer, R B Choudary.

Jeeva debut performance as a film hero was his father’s 50th
production, Aasai Aasaiyai. Jeeva 2nd film Thithikuthe, a
Tamil remake of Uday Kiran’s Telugu film Manasanta
Nuvve, was also from his fathers banner, Super Good
Films.

Jeeva has three older brothers: B.Sursh is the joint
producer in Super Good Films. Another brother Jeevan is
a business magnate. Next is Ramesh.  

Jeeva is also an
actor, now known as Githan Ramesh. Jeeva started off as
a child star in 2 of his father’s film productions, one of
them being the Sarath Kumar blockbuster
Sooryavamsam.

Audiences remember Jeeva as the cute boy who brought an estranged father and son together in
Sooryavamsam.

He is the youngest and inarguably the cutest with the boyish charms and killer smile that made people stand up to notice in his debut film Aasai Aasaiyai itself.

Jeeva’s father, R B Choudary, produced numerous films,
introduced now-famous directors and heroes and is a
noted South Indian film producer despite having Hindi as
mother tongue and hailing from Rajasthan, a north
Indian state.

After Aasai Aasaiyai and Thittikudhey, which
were romantic Tamil flops, he found himself in a spot of
bother, with no good film offers coming his way.

Then in 2005, he came back with the mega blockbuster Raam
which put him in contention with other young actors in
Kollywood like Jayam Ravi, Bharath and Silambarasan.

Raam was a one-of-a-kind Tamil movie by critically
acclaimed director of the 2002 sleeper hit Mounam
Pesiyathe, Ameer Sultan; it falls in the genre of a murder
mystery thriller, yet it is primarily a character study.

He played Ramakrishna, an autistic schoolboy, desired by
the rich girl next door and later accused by her father for
murdering his own mother.
Jeeva hardly talked throughout the movie, letting his
body language demonstrate his character.

The movie was
one of the highest grossing movies of the year, it was
screened at Indian Panorama and later at the Cyprus
International Film Festival(CIFF), where it won two awards
– the Best Actor award for Jeeva and the Best Musical
Score Award for its Music director Yuvan Shankar Raja.

For 22-year old, it was not only the first International
Award he received, but also his first ever acting award.

The only other time a Tamil actor received an
international award was when Legendary actor Sivaji
Ganesan received the Best Actor Award for his film in
1959, Veerapandiya Kattabomman, at the Afro-Asian
International Film Festival in Cairo, Egypt in 1960.

Thanks to Raam and Jeeva, this was indeed an honour for
Kollywood in 21st century. From then onwards, he has
had a successful stint in Dishyum with Kaadhal actress,
Sandhya, proving a musical hit. Jeeva played another
different role in Dishyum, that of a stuntman in films,
this role was different from usual heroic roles in Tamil
Cinema.

Although the title Dishyum gave viewers the
impression of an action-packed film, Dishyum was
predominantly a romance between that of a cocksure
stuntman and a practical arts student.

This film won accolades due to the remarkable acting
and an impressionable direction by Sasi, director of
former hits such as Sollamalae and Roja Kootam.

Among his films, Raam, Dishyum, Keerthi Chakra and E
are the ones that have done well at the box office.
Jeeva’s flops include Aasai Aasaiyai, Thittikudhey, and
Pori. Hence, his hits and misses are balanced. Aran was
not a flop it was considered a success and his upcoming
films are Thamizh MA, Thenavattu and Rameswaram.
Jeeva is considered a better actor than his brother
Ramesh.
