Early life and career
He was born in
Vijayan. During his early days he was body double for heroes as well as heroines.[3]
His debut film as "fight master " was in Gautham Vasudev Menon's debut directorial Minnale (2001). Krishna Vamsi, a Telugu film director recognised his sincerity and dedication[citation needed] and offered him the chance to direct the action sequences for the film Murari which was also dubbed into Tamil. From then on, he became a full-length action film director, action co-ordinator and stunt director for various Telugu and Tamil films.
He acquired recognition from critics and media for his work in several films such as Raavan. However, due to scheduling conflicts with Magadheera, Hein has done limited work for Raavan. He was the first recipient of the National Film Award for Best Stunt Choreographer for his work in Pulimurugan (2016). He also directed the 2021 Indo-Vietnamese film Sám Hối: The Living Sandbag.[4]
