Pavel Navageethan (born 17 January 1984) is an Indian actor and filmmaker who works in Tamil cinema.

Acting career[edit]

Pavel Navageethan's dream was to be a director, so he wrote scripts for films, but was unable to get producers.[1][2] He then moved to acting debuting under his friend, Pa. Ranjith's Madras, where he played a henchman named Viji. His role in the film earned him the name Madras Viji.[3] Pavel Navageethan later played roles in several other films (including Kuttram Kadithal, Magalir Mattum, Vada Chennai, and Peranbu) before turning director.[3][2][4] He made his directorial debut with a mystery thriller V1, after the editor was able to get a producer for the film.[5][6]
