Vaaranam Aayiram Once again starring Suriya in the lead, the film largely talks about a father-son relationship. It went on to win the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Tamil and was also a commercial success.

Yennai Arindhaal Being the last of Gautham Menon's cop trilogy, Yennai Arindhaal is about a retired cop who is forced to get back into action due to certain circumstances. Starring Thala Ajith, Trisha and Anushka in the lead, Yennai Arindhaal went on to satisfy both critics and fans alike.

Minnale Minnale marked Gautham's directorial debut and the film was considered a trend setter at the time of its release. It stars Madhavan and Reema Sen in the lead.
