Radha Mohan (Born 20 November 1965) is a Tamil movie director. He has, till date, directed five films, out of which four of them are critically acclaimed and box-office hits. A good friend of actor-producer Prakash Raj, he has directed four films for Prakash Raj's Duet films: Azhagiya Theeye, Mozhi, Abhiyum Naanum and Payanam. He was born in Nagercoil. Director Dharani is his best friend.
Known for his strong storylines and sensible and realistic portrayal of women, Radha Mohan's films have largely been clean family entertainers. The director has a penchant for humour in his films, and his films have been rib ticklers even as they carry strong messages and handling serious themes. Mozhi is his career's biggest hit followed by Payanam[2]. The director worked under R. V. Udayakumar before he did his first film, Azhagiya Theeye.
In reality, director Radha Mohan's first film was Smile Please in 1996, and featured Prakash Raj in the lead but the movie was never completed and failed to release.
