Career
Jiyen Krishnakumar began his career working on Malayalam films, notably making two films with Indrajith Sukumaran — College Days (2010) and Kaanchi (2013). His third film Tiyaan (2017), was produced on a larger budget, and featured Prithviraj in the leading role alongside Indrajith. With minimal promotions, the film opened to mixed reviews from critics.[1][2] In 2023, Jiyen's first Tamil film Run Baby Run starring RJ Balaji and Aishwarya Rajesh was released.[3]
His next release will be Paramaguru, an action drama film starring Sasikumar in the lead role. The film began production in 2019 and was delayed owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] He has also agreed terms to work on another film for Prince Pictures following the favourable response to Run Baby Run.[5]
