Early life and family

Jayam Ravi was born as Mohan Ravi in Tirumangalam, Madurai. [1] His father is Editor Mohan, a Tamil Rowther, [2] while his mother is from Andhra Pradesh. His elder brother, Mohan Raja, is a film director, with most of his films featuring Ravi in the lead role, while his sister, Roja, is a dentist. Ravi grew up in both Chennai and Hyderabad. He completed his schooling at Jawahar Vidyalaya in Ashok Nagar, Chennai. He studied dancing under the Bharatnatyam dancer Nalini Balakrishnan and performed his arangetram at the age of 12. After completing his degree in Visual Communication from Loyola College, Chennai, he decided to get into the film industry. He also trained in acting at the Kishore Namit Kapur Institute in Mumbai. [3] [4] Before debuting as an actor, Ravi had been an assistant director to Suresh Krishna for Aalavandhan (2001), starring Kamal Haasan. [ citation needed ]

Acting career

1989–2008: Debut and success

Ravi acted as a child actor in three films including two Telugu films: Oru Thottil Sabadham (1989), Bava Bavamaridi (1993) and Palnati Pourusham (1993), which were all produced by his father. [1] [5]

Jayam Ravi made his lead acting debut in the action-masala film Jayam , produced by his father and directed by his brother Mohan Raja. It was a remake of the 2002 Telugu film of the same name. His next venture was the sentimental drama M. Kumaran Son Of Mahalakshmi (2004), the remade version of the Telugu film Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi , in which he starred alongside Asin Thottumkal. Of Ravi's performance, a critic from Sify wrote that he "makes you want to see more of him", [6] while The Hindu 's Malathi Rangarajan noted that he came out with an "appreciable portrayal throughout". [7] The film, considered a family entertainer, received the Tamil Nadu State Film Special Award for Best Film and fetched Ravi himself the Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Actor. [8] It also emerged a financial success. [9]

His next release, Daas (2005), a romantic action, [10] [11] featured him as a football player. [12] The film took an even bigger opening than his previous ones. [13] Sify's reviewer described his performance as "impressive", calling Ravi a "hundred percent convincing as an action hero". [14] Mazhai , a remake of the Telugu film Varsham , was his other release that year, which was "lukewarm" at the box office. [15] In 2006, he starred in Saran's Idhaya Thirudan , which performed poorly at the box office, [16] following which, he acted in Unakkum Enakkum (initially released and promoted as Something Something Unakkum Enakkum), again under his brother's direction in another remake of a Telugu film Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana . Ravi portrayed a rich, happy-go-lucky NRI from London, who has to live and fight for his love in dire conditions in a rural milieu. [17] The film, which featured Trisha Krishnan alongside Ravi, became a high critical as well as financial success, [18] emerging one of the highest-grossing and most-profitable films of the year. [19] [20] The N. Linguswamy-produced Deepavali under Ezhil's direction became his only 2007 release.[ citation needed ]

In 2008, Ravi appeared in three films. Following a cameo appearance in Velli Thirai , he acted in the family drama Santhosh Subramaniam , once again under his brother's direction in a remake. In the Tamil version of the 2006 Telugu film Bommarillu , starring opposite Genelia D'Souza, he played a young man, whose choices and wishes are continually subdued by his father. [21] Ravi received a nomination for the Best Tamil Actor Award at the 56th Filmfare Awards South. Next, he starred in the action thriller Dhaam Dhoom , directed by cinematographer-director Jeeva, who died in the midst of the film's shooting in Russia. [22] Completed by Jeeva's assistant Manikandan, his wife Aneez Tanveer and his guru P. C. Sreeram, Dhaam Dhoom released in mid-2008 in which he portrayed Gautham Subramaniyam, a man accused in a murder he did not commit. [23] Sify's reviewer wrote that he was "simply amazing in his role", label the film as an "out and out Jayam Ravi movie". [23]
