Film career

He worked as an assistant director to R. Parthiepan and Vijay Milton in Pachchak Kuthira, Goli Soda respectively. [4]

Sathuranga Vettai, his first movie in 2014, was very well received by the audience. The film was said to be a "con film". Vinoth stated, "My film is about the pace at which we all want to make money in our lives. It's about the anger of the common man who thinks money is the solution to all his problems. When there's an imbalance in nature, we experience tsunami and earthquake. Likewise, my story is about the imbalance in the social morals of a common man".[5] Although it was a heist film, the director said that he had made the film "as funny as possible" and that it had been narrated , was signed on as director.[6][7] The film subsequently began production in mid-October 2016.

In early 2016, Vinoth narrated a script to Karthi, who was very impressed and agreed to team up with Vinoth after his current commitments Kaashmora and Kaatru Veliyidai.[8][9] The movie is titled as Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru and produced by S. R. Prakashbabu and S.R. Prabhu of Dream Warrior Pictures.[10] The story is based on true events from the Operation Bawaria, which involved the nefarious activity of dacoits and its eventual containment by Tamil Nadu police. Karthi and Rakul Preet Singh play the lead roles in this movie, while Abhimanyu Singh played the prime antagonist. Along with the Telugu dubbed version titled Khakee - The Power of Police, the film was released on 17 November 2017. A Hindi dubbed version titled Theeran was released on YouTube by Goldmines Telefilms on 24 June 2018. Karthi received Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actor – South and nominated Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Tamil.[11]

During the post-production of Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru, Vinoth narrated a con man type of script to Ajith. However, Ajith rejected it citing he had done similar movies and suggested on remaking Pink mentioning he liked his way of writing and wanted him to make this movie Tamil. Initially, Vinoth was reluctant on doing a remake but on Ajith's request and on repeated watching of the original movie Pink, he accepted to do it under Boney Kapoor's Bayview Projects. Boney Kapoor, Ajith and Vinoth entered into a two movie deal with small budget Pink remake Nerkonda Paarvai and a big-budget action thriller Valimai slotted for 2019 and 2020 release respectively. Nerkonda Paarvai released on 8 August 2019 and has received positive reviews from critics and was successful at the box office.[12]
