Sunil (actor)

Indukuri Sunil Varma (born 28 February 1974), known mononymously as Sunil, is an Indian actor who works predominantly in Telugu films, and has also featured in a few Tamil films. Noted for his comic roles, Sunil has appeared in over 180 films in his career, including a few lead roles. He has won three state Nandi Awards and two Filmfare Awards South. He was widely considered as one of Tollywood's finest comedians during his peak in the 2000s, most known for his distinct laugh and delivery of jokes.

Sunil played a lead role in ''Andala Ramudu'' (2006) and later went on to star in several Telugu language films including commercial successes like ''Maryada Ramanna'' (2010), ''Poola Rangadu'' (2012), and ''Tadakha'' (2013).

His career took a decline over the 2010s as he opted for more lead hero roles over comedian roles in commercially unsuccessful films, but has seen a career resurgence as a villain and in more versatile roles. Sunil started as the antagonist in the films ''Colour Photo'' (2020) and ''Pushpa: The Rise'' (2021), which were commercially successful films. His Tamil films include ''Maaveeran'' (2023) and ''Jailer'' (2023), the latter of which is his highest grossing release till date. Provided by Wikipedia
