Early life[edit]
Bhaskar was born in Vellore, Tamil Nadu. He was a student of the Film and Television Institute of Tamil Nadu, Chennai.
Career[edit]
In his early career, he worked as associate director on films Bhadra and Arya.
His directorial debut, Bommarillu starring Siddarth and Genelia D'Souza, earned him two Nandi Awards for Best Debut Direcot and Best Original Screenplay. His next venture, Parugu starring Allu Arjun, was also a box office hit. However, Orange, which starred Ram Charan, garnered mixed reviews but later became a cult classic. His fourth film was Ongole Gittha, which was a box office failure. He made his Tamil debut in 2016 with Bangalore Naatkal, starring Arya, Bobby Simha, Sri Divya, Rana Daggubati, Parvathy, and Samantha Ruth Prabhu. The film was a remake of the Malayalam film Bangalore Days (2014), and it too was a box office failure. In 2021, he directed Most Eligible Bachelor with Akhil Akkineni and Pooja Hegde, which received positive reviews and became a success.
