Siva - The Actor

He began his media career when he joined as a participant on STAR Vijay's Kalakka Povathu Yaaru, a comedy reality show, following which he was appointed as a regular presenter at the same television station upon witnessing his sense of humor, which consists of quick-witted satirical one-liners and often poking fun of his co-hosts and fellow contestants in shows. He has hosted a number of shows on STAR Vijay, including the third and fifth seasons of Jodi Number One, Adhu Idhu Edhu, Boys vs. Girls and Airtel Super Singer Junior while also conducting special film-promotional interviews. He made his debut as a film actor in Marina (2012).
