Career

Charan began working as a playback singer in 1997 with "Deepangal Pesum" from Devathai, which has its music composed by Ilaiyaraaja. About being the son of an icon, he stated: "my voice sounds so much like appa, people might not want to use a similar voice. When SPB himself is rocking, why would composers need his clone?".[7] He has sung for composers M. M. Keeravani, A. R. Rahman and Devi Sri Prasad. Charan's most popular songs include "Nagila Nagila" from Alaipayuthey, "Mellaga" from Varsham, "Nenu Nenuga Lene" from Manmadhudu, "I Love you Shailaja" from Mazhai, "Please Sir" from Boys, "Maaja Maaja" from Sillunu Oru Kaadhal, "Oru Nanban Irundhal" from Enakku 20 Unakku 18, "O Shanti" from Vaaranam Aayiram, "Nee Naan" from Mankatha. In 2010, he recorded a song in Kadhal 2 Kalyanam, composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja.

Charan first acted with his father in a film called Maha Yedabidangi, directed by K. S. L. Swamy, but the film was not released.[9] [10] Balachander's son Kailasam approached him to act in the television show Oonjal, produced by K. Balachander and directed by Sundar K. Vijayan. It was followed by Radan's Annamalai. He also starred in a TV serial named Bommaigal in Tamil and Akka Chellulu in Telugu. His first release was the Kannada film Hudugigagi in 2003, directed by B. Manjunath.[11] In 2008, he played one of the lead roles in Venkat Prabhu's Saroja. On his performance, Sify wrote: "S.P.B Charan as Jagapathy Babu suits the role and is fantastic".[12] He acted in Va, in which he played Shiva's prospective brother-in-law.[13] He acted in two Tamil films Vanavarayan Vallavarayan and Vizhithiru.[14]

Other works

Charan established the film production company Capital Film Works, in 2002. Their first production was Unnai Charanadainthen, in which Charan played the lead role, alongside his friend Venkat Prabhu.[4] [15] The film, which notably featured musical score by Charan's father, Balasubrahmanyam, received four Tamil Nadu State Film Awards.[4] Charan revealed that he decided to produce the film after hearing Samuthirakani's narration.[6] He further produced the Jayam Ravi-starrer Mazhai (2005), a remake of the Telugu film Varsham,[16] which was a failure at the box office.[6] His next production was Venkat Prabhu's directorial debut Chennai 600028 (2007), featured eleven newcomers in the lead and became one of the year's most successful Tamil films.[6] [17] In 2011, his sixth production Aaranya Kaandam, was released to critical acclaim and became noted for getting 52 cuts by the regional Central Board of Film Certification.[18] Although it did not achieve the expected box office success, Charan won a National Film Award as a producer of the film.[19] His next production was Thirudan Police, by another debutant, Caarthick Raju.[20]
