Subramanian (died 1991), known professionally as Rajasekhar (/rɑːdʒəseɪkər/) was an Indian film director and screenwriter who was active mainly in Tamil cinema during the 1980s. He also directed films in Telugu, Kannada and Hindi.

Early life and career

Rajasekhar was born as Subramanian in Nattarasankottai in the then Ramanathapuram district and was a Bachelor of Science graduate. Prior to his entry in films, he was working in government department and few people encouraged him to write scripts as they felt he had a creator in him thus he wrote story for the 1977 release Naam Pirandha Mann. It was Rajinikanth who gave Subramanian the name Rajasekhar.[1] He worked as assistant director to M. A. Kaja and Rama Narayanan.[2] He made his directorial debut with Hunnimeya Rathriyalli in Kannada based on their story while Kanneer Pookkal was his debut in Tamil.[3]

Rajasekhar frequently collaborated with Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan. With the former he directed Gangvaa, Thambikku Entha Ooru, Padikkadavan, Maaveeran Maapillai and Dharma Durai; with the latter he directed Kaakki Sattai and Vikram. Rajasekhar's other major credits include Malaiyoor Mambattiyan, Eetti, Cooliekkaran, Paatti Sollai Thattathe and its Telugu remake Baamma Maata Bangaru Baata.
