But he became a household with 'Eeram' when his acting skills were praised by all when he played a grey-shaded character in this film. The role that Nandha played in this film got him critical as well as commercial popularity. Post his success with 'Eeram' the actor was flooded with more films. The next film that he appeared in was 'Anandhapurathu Veedu' another horror movie where Nandha shared screen space with Chaya Singh. The film released in July 2010, and received lukewarm response from the audience.

The actor, now, is currently involved in a couple of projects, those that are different from his previous ventures. One is 'Vellore Mavattam,' where Nandha plays a cop, Muthu Kumar IPS. Poorna singh is playing the female lead in this film, the filming is fast forwarding quickly and might release soon.

The other projects that Nandha is associated with are 'Jayakumaranin Thiraikathai' and 'Puzhuthi.' Both these films stories are based on stories in Tamil Nadu and are being filmed in the state.

Looks like Nandha is indeed choosing scripts that vary entirely from one another and doesn't want audience to see him in the same avatar...
