Napoleon entry into Cinema
At the age 27, watching ‘Udhayam’, a Telugu movie, Napoleon felt an urge to act. Until then, Napoleon had appeased the artist in himself by writing poetry. But now, the time was ripe for bigger and better things.

Best known as a versatile actor, Napoleon entered the Tamil film industry in 1991. His first film “Pudhu Nellu Puddhu Nathu” directed by Bharathi Raja gave him ample scope to showcase his acting abilities. After all, not every 27 year old can play the part of a 60 year old man with panache!

His performance was impressive enough to bag him many more roles. With “Seevalperi Pandi,” his career as an actor reached a new high. Today, Napoleon is considered as an actor who lives his roles with perfect realism. His most recent movies include the roles of Gurupadam in Vattaram, Mohammed Mohideen Khan in Pokkiri and Kulothunga Raja Cholan in, Dasavatharam.
