Lallu

Indian actor and lyricist

Lallu is an Indian actor and lyricist who works in Tamil-language films. He is known for his collaborations with Rajkumar Periasamy in Rangoon (2017) and Amaran (2024).

01Career

Lallu started his career as an actor by acting in several short films. He debuted as a lyricist for Inga Enna Solluthu (2014) and wrote a song for Virattu (2014). In a soundtrack album review of Inga Enna Solluthu, the reviewer wrote that "‘Cute-ana’ sung by Naresh Iyer and written by Lallu, is enjoyable". That same year, he received a role in R. Parthiban's Kathai Thiraikathai Vasanam Iyakkam (2014) after Keerthana, Parthiban's daughter, watched one of his short films and suggested him for a role. He played supporting roles in Chennai 600028 II (2016) and 8 Thottakkal (2017) before he starred in Rangoon (2017). He garnered acclaim for playing one of Gautham Karthik's friends in the film. Lallu had also written a song titled "Foreign Return" for the film that contained Burmese lyrics. He has since played supporting roles in several films including Sarkar (2018), Kaithi (2019), Master (2021) and Amaran (2024).
