A patient wait is paying rich dividends to Jeevan. The tall actor made his impact playing a baddie in Khaakha Khaakha.

Thanks to director Susi Ganesan, he played the anti-hero in Thiruttu Payalae. The movie's success brought him more fame. However the actor hoses to wait before accepting his next movie.

A long wait ended with Jeevan doing the remake of yesteryear K Balachandar’s classic Naan Avanillai. He plays the role enacted by Gemini Ganesan in the movie.

Also Jeevan is playing the hero in Machakaran. The movie would be directed Thamizhvanan, who wielded the megaphone for S J Suryah's Kalvanin Kadhali. Also Jeevan's Thotta directed by Selvah is nearing completion.

Jeevan is hopeful of greater fortunes this new year.
