One of Kollywood's best actor and a star who is growing in leaps and bounds turns 32 today. Yes, it's Dhanush's birthday and time to celebrate it FilmiBeat style.
Born as Venkatesh Prabhu Kasthuri Raja, he had to adapt to his screen name Dhanush after the release of his first film Thulluvadho Ilamai directed by his father Kasthuri Raja, as per records.
Though Dhanush had a successful start to his acting career which began in 2002, his career graph took an unexpected plunge in 2004 and remained that way for the next four years with the only relief coming in the form of Pudhupettai in 2006. His major break came through Polladhavan which was his first movie with director Vetrimaran.
When these two joined hands again for Aadukalam, the actor became a sensation as the movie earned him his first National Award. Though Dhanush had sung many songs before, his 'Why This Kolaveri Di' from the film 3 became an internet, eventually becoming most viewed Indian song ever on YouTube.
This film 3, which marked his wife Aishwarya's directorial debut, exposed Dhanush as a full time lyricist as he went on to pen down all the songs featuring in the movie.
