R. Sukumaran is an Indian film director.

Sukumaran's entry into film-making was incidental. While on an exhibition in Germany, he was invited to make a movie and thus began his work as a director. His first movie was Paadha Mudra which was both critically and commercially successful. The movie explored the father-son relationship. This was followed by Rajashilpi which bordered on the realms of fantasy. Yuguapurushan, released in February 2010, had been in the making for over fifteen years. [1]

Though Sukumaran has made few films, they were "enough to establish him as a filmmaker worth reckoning" with and to give him a reputation in Malayalam cinema.[2]

He studied painting and mastered water color as well as oil color under Artist Mouttathu K Raman Unnithan (Medayil Bungalow) at Pallickal, Nooranadu in a gurukula sampradaya for several years.
