Beyond the Telugu states, director Sukumar is considered a popular filmmaker because of his rise to national fame with the Pushpa series, which became an ultimate Indian Industry Hit.
Sukumar's reputation as one of India's most innovative filmmakers was made even stronger by the recent smash hit Pushpa 2: The Rule, which gave a cultural boom to viewers all over the world.
Sukumar’s legacy goes beyond box office number and stardom for the Telugu audience.
The official Instagram of Sukumar Writings celebrated the scriptwriter’s decade-long legacy with a tribute. The post reads, “A decade of magical stories. A decade of nurturing young talent. A decade since Maverick director @aryasukku ’s vision came to life. Celebrating 10 glorious years of @sukumarwritings. Many more to come.”
Sukumar began his career as a lecturer, teaching young minds. His transition to filmmaking was marked the rise of a highly acclaimed director though a teacher inside him never faded. Through his writings, the director has mentored his assistants and associates to leave their mark on the industry.
The director over the years has delivered impactful stories such as Virupaksha, Kumari 21F and 18 pages while introducing fresh talents to Telugu cinema.
With Sukumar Writings, one of India's most anticipated films, Peddi, starring Ram Charan in the lead roles, is currently in production. The director’s advice and direction are necessary in this project. The expectations for Peddi are extremely high after the huge success of Pushpa 2, as both audiences and industry insiders are really excited to witness yet another innovative film. The same excitement awaits critically acclaimed films like Karthik Dandu's NC24 and Gandhi Thatha Chettu.

Few renowned directors are able to attract the respect Sukumar does because of his self-less commitment to promoting creativity.
On the work front, Sukumar is currently working with Ram Charan in scripting his next project with him. The director is also working on pre-conceptualization and has six other scripts ready for production as well. As SS Rajamouli was in total shock after just one scene from Ram Charan's movie, the remaining six scripts have the same potential to shake up the country, according to sources.
