He made his directorial debut with Sollamale in 1998 and followed it up with a series of

successful romance films Roja Kootam (2002), Dishyum (2006) and Poo (2008). In January
2007, he decided to make Poo (Flower), after being inspired by the romantic short story of
Veyilodu Poi written by Thamizh Selvan, noting that the effect that the story had on him was
"Mind-blowing" and decided that he had "to take the story to everyone".[2] He chose to utilise a
new technical team for the project, choosing to sign up S. S. Kumar and P. G. Muthiah for the
music and cinematography respectively, with the pair both passing a selection interview set up
by Sasi. Srikanth was retained and the director worked on toning down the actor's complexion,
while Malayalam actress Parvathy was selected to play the lead role in the film, and also went
through a similar character acclimatisation procedure.[2] Upon release in December 2008, the film
gained positive reviews with a critic noting "the one man who deserves an ovation here is
director Sasi", "handling the story, screenplay, dialogue and direction, he has given a product
that will please all true lovers of cinema and he must also be credited with extracting moving
performances from the cast."[3] A reviewer from Rediff.com wrote "as far as screenplays and
performances go, Sasi has a winner on his hands. Few rural sagas are this refreshing or
poetic."[4] The film subsequently won accolades at several regional award ceremonies such as
the 56th Filmfare Awards South, Vijay Awards and the Tamil Nadu State Film Awards, where it
won recognition including a special mention in the Best Film category as another for
portraying women in good light.[5] The film was also screened across international film festivals,
notably at the Los Angeles Indian Film Festival, and won Sasi the Best Director award in
Ahmedabad Film Festival.[6]
Sasi began work on his next, his first action entertainer, in late 2008 and worked on the script of
the film, initially titled Puyal for almost two years.[7] The director had casually narrated the story
to Bharath and the actor, impressed with the narration, approached the producers of the film to
cast him in the lead role and Sasi obliged. Since 2010, the actor has expressed how important
the film will be to his career and worked out to sport a six pack in the film.[8] The film titled Ainthu
Ainthu Ainthu (555), which also features Mirthika and Erica Fernandes, eventually released after
several delays in August 2013 and won critical acclaim. A critic from Behindwoods.com noted
"Sasi is a master teller when it comes to narrate a story about love and its finer aspects and
there would always be a kind of poignancy in them. 555 is no exception", while another critic
noted "The non-linear screenplay is a huge plus in making the film interesting".[9] Sasi's last film
with Bharath, Ainthu Ainthu Ainthu didn't fare well at the Box office and he will looking forward to
renew the fortunes this time. The film Pichaikkaran (Film) report say will be produces by Vijay
Antony himself and will also compose the music sources.pichaikkaran movie shooting going on
several places in chennai.[10][11] Apparently, it was Sasi's who introduced Vijay Antony as a Music
director in his film Dishyum.[12]
