== Career ==
Suseenthiran, who originally hails from a small village called Amarapoondi in [[Palani]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://specials.rediff.com/movies/2009/feb/09slde1-susindran-on-vennila-kabadi-kuzhu.htm|title=I was in no way influenced by Chak De India|website=[[Rediff]]|access-date=2009-08-10}}</ref> was always "crazy about films" like his father and his uncle, who had made a film years ago, that never got released.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://specials.rediff.com/movies/2009/feb/09slde5-susindran-on-vennila-kabadi-kuzhu.htm|title=I was sure that I would be a filmmaker one day|website=[[Rediff]]|access-date=2009-08-10}}</ref> Though his family did not want him to become a director and "waste" his life on films, he was sure that he would be a filmmaker one day. To achieve his dream, he came to [[Chennai]], when he was 18 years old and needed 12 years to make his first film. Suseenthiran had worked as assistant director to prominent filmmakers as [[Sabapathy Dekshinamurthy|S. D. Sabha]] and [[Ezhil]],<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.hindu.com/2008/04/11/stories/2008041159761100.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080412063413/http://www.hindu.com/2008/04/11/stories/2008041159761100.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=2008-04-12|title=Youngsters join hands to sizzle on the screen|website=[[The Hindu]]|access-date=2009-08-10|location=Chennai, India|date=2008-04-11}}</ref> before turning an independent director.

His maiden venture, titled ''[[Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu]]'', was released in 2009, receiving rave accolades.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-news-1/feb-09-01/vennila-kabadi-Kuzhu-04-02-09.html|title=What inspired Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu|website=Behindwoods|access-date=2009-08-10}}</ref> According to Susindran, the film is based on real life incidents as his father was a [[Kabaddi|kabadi player]] and Susindran got to know about the insults and pains the player went through, which he wanted to showcase in a film.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://specials.rediff.com/movies/2009/feb/09slde1-susindran-on-vennila-kabadi-kuzhu.htm|title=I was in no way influenced by Chak De India|website=[[Rediff]]|access-date=2009-08-10}}</ref> Also he was said to be inspired from success of the 2002 [[Bollywood|Bollywood film]] ''[[Lagaan]]'', which was based on [[cricket]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-news-1/feb-09-01/vennila-kabadi-Kuzhu-04-02-09.html|title=What inspired Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu|website=Behindwoods|access-date=2009-08-10}}</ref>

Following the success of his debut film, he started his next project ''[[Naan Mahaan Alla (2010 film)|Naan Mahaan Alla]]'' (2010). This film, starring [[Karthi]] and [[Kajal Aggarwal]] in the lead roles, opened to highly positive reviews and emerged a commercial success as well. During this film's final stages of post-production, he started working on his third film, titled ''[[Azhagarsamiyin Kudhirai]]'' (2011).<ref>{{cite news| url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2010-07-25/news-interviews/28290365_1_vennila-kabadi-kuzhu-karthi-naan-mahan-alla | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110811091038/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2010-07-25/news-interviews/28290365_1_vennila-kabadi-kuzhu-karthi-naan-mahan-alla | url-status=dead | archive-date=2011-08-11 | work=[[The Times of India]] | title=Suseenthiran back with a bang | date=2010-07-25}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Tamil Cinema News - Tamil Movie Reviews - Tamil Movie Trailers | website=IndiaGlitz.com | date=2018-06-20 | url=https://www.indiaglitz.com/tamil | access-date=2021-01-13}}</ref> Suseenthiran revealed that ''Azhagarsamiyin Kuthirai'' was planned to be his second directorial, but since no producer was willing to fund the film with an offbeat theme, he chose to make a film featuring a known lead actor first. ''Azhagarsamiyin Kuthirai'', based on Bhaskar Sakthi's novel, likewise fetched critical acclaim. It was screened at [[2011 Toronto International Film Festival]] in Contemporary World Cinema category.<ref>{{cite web|title=Tamil film selected for Toronto film festival|url=http://movies.ndtv.com/regional/tamil-film-selected-for-toronto-film-festival-127755|publisher=NDTV|access-date=3 February 2013}}</ref> Suseenthiran finished his fourth venture, titled ''[[Rajapattai]]'' (2011), starring [[Vikram (actor)|Vikram]] and [[Deeksha Seth]] in the lead.<ref>https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/rajapattai-road-much-travelled/article2744514.ece</ref> Nearly two years after ''Rajapattai'', Suseenthiran bounces back with ''[[Aadhalal Kadhal Seiveer]]'' (2013) that has a neatly told story and a finale that touches an interesting emotional acme.<ref>https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/cinema-reviews/climax-wins-the-heart/article5032233.ece</ref> In 2013, Suseenthiran prepares a commercial film with a simple story about settling scores, but the director ensures that his narration is interesting and entertaining at the same time. Suseenthiran earns appreciation for not taking the audience for granted with over the top heroism and highly illogical scenarios. He is also slowly proving to be one of the versatile directors in the circuit.<ref>https://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movies/pandianadu/pandianadu-review.html</ref> ''[[Pandiya Naadu]]'' (2013) has won rave reviews from critics as well as the audiences.<ref>https://www.ibtimes.co.in/box-office-039pandiya-nadu039-039all-in-all-azhaguraja039-collections-519554</ref>

[[Vishnu Vishal]] and Suseenthiran jointly made their debut with ''Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu'' and both are back once again with a super hit movie, ''[[Jeeva (2014 film)|Jeeva]]'' (2014) a sport drama.

His next film was ''[[Eeswaran]]'' (2021) starring [[Silambarasan]] released on the occasion of [[Pongal (festival)|Pongal]]. At a time when fans are longing to witness that energetic Simbu on screen, which has been missing for years, Suseenthiran delivers a perfect rural entertainer that serves just that. The screenplay has been developed in a manner to please both the star’s fans and family audience.<ref>https://www.indiatoday.in/movies/regional-cinema/story/eeswaran-movie-review-simbu-excels-in-this-largely-satisfying-rural-drama-1759084-2021-01-14</ref>
