BIOGRAPHY

Udaykrishna–Sibi K. Thomas are a screenwriter duo known for their works in Malayalam cinema. Most of their works are in the comedy genre with films such as Mattupetti Machan (1998), Udayapuram Sulthan (1999), Dhosth (2001), C.I.D. Moosa (2003), Runway (2004), Thuruppu Gulan (2005), Twenty:20 (2008), Pokkiri Raja (2010), Christian Brothers (2011) and Mayamohini (2012); all turning out to be big commercial hits.The duo started their career as assistant directors and wrote their first screenplay in 1997, for Hitler Brothers. They got their break through Mattuppetti Machan (1998) but it was Udayapuram Sulthan (1999) that made them bankable screenwriters. They made memorable films with directors including Joshiy, Johny Antony, Jose Thomas and Sandhya Mohan.The duo are often criticised for the lack of content in their screenplays, their continuous association with superstars. But most of their films were big hits owing to the elitist nature of the industry. The duo part away in 2015, Udayakrishna to continue as a scriptwriter while Sibi K. Thomas as a filmmaker. Udayakrishna penned his first Independent script Puli Murugan in 2015 and is scripting for Sibis first directorial debut.
