[edit]Career

Saikumar's father was the great Malayalam actor Kottarakkara Sreedharan Nair. Saikumar started his career in cinema as a child artist in Vidarunna Mottukal. He started his career in theatres. He was offered the lead role in the film Swati Tirunaal, but it later was done by another actor. He made his debut in the blockbuster Ramji Rao Speaking (1989). It was directed by two debutantes, Siddique and Lal (Siddique-Lal), and had debutant actors Saikumar and Rekha in the lead.

The succes of the film helped him to earn a lot of opportunities in the next few years. He has done leading roles in a few films like Sauhradam, Thudarkkatha, Khoshayathra, Anantha Vrithantham,Thooval Sparsam, etc. But in that age of comedy, he could not make an impact as a hero while Mukesh, Jagadeesh and Siddique were cast in the small budget movies. Sai Kumar remained active in the industry with supporting, character and negative roles in films including In Harihar Nagar, Saandram, Makkal Mahalmyam, Griha Pravesam, Ayushkalam. The sequel to Ramji Rao Speaking, Mannar Mathai Speaking was a blockbuster of 1995. This time Mukesh stole the show in the lead. His villain roles in Mammootty's 1996 blockbuster Hitler was noted. This earned him the reputation of acting the intelligent villain.

The golden period of Sai Kumar's started in the late 1990s. He was cast in the super hit Aaram Thamburan by Shaji Kailas where he played the close friend of hero acted by the Malayalam film star Mohanlal. Then he became the inevitable ingredient of all the superstar movies. He played villain to Mohanlal in Narasimham (2000), Thandavam (2001), and Chathurangam (2001). His prominence was evident from the posters of Thandavam where his pictures were printed the same size as Mohanlal's. In movies like Valliettan and Vesham he played villain to Mammootty. In the Dileep movie Kunjikkoonan (2002), he appeared in a completely different get-up of a cruel Goonda, which was much acclaimed.

2005 was a very good year for Saikumar in which he acted in Rajamanikyam, Mammootty's mega-hit where he played an elder man. This made the directors rethink his range of characters. InSuresh Gopi's comeback film Bharathchandran IPS, he played the villain. He described the role as an anti-hero not a villain, since he leads story in the first 45 minutes until Suresh Gopi appears. He also played the supporting role as DYSP Pothen in the Suresh Gopi hit The Tiger.

In 2007, he won accolades for his performance as a Kathakali artist and the father of a highly talented but ailing son in Anandabhairavi. Director Vinayan described him as talented as Mohanlalwhich is the best compliment for his acting abilities.

[edit]Personal life

Sai Kumar is from an acting family: His father Kottarakkara Sreedharan Nair was one of the major character actors of the black-and-white era. His elder sister Sobha Mohan had a short stint as a heroine during the early 1980s and is now acting in films in character roles while brother-in-law Mohan was a theatre artist.^{[citation needed]} His nephew Vinu Mohan made debut in Malayalam films in 2007 with Nivedyam. Sai Kumar was cast as villain opposite his nephew in Cycle (2008). Anu Mohan, his second nephew has also started an acting career.^{[citation needed]}

Sai Kumar married Prasanna Kumari who was his heroine during his theatre days. They have a daughter. Sai Kumar filed for divorce in 2009 among rumours linking him with another actress.^[1]
