[3] He went on to direct the critically-acclaimed Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru (2017) along with Nerkonda Paarvai (2019), Valimai (2022), and Thunivu (2023), his trio of films starring Ajith Kumar.

Vinoth worked as an assistant director to R. Parthiepan and Vijay Milton, in Pachchak Kuthira and Goli Soda, respectively.

[6][7] In early 2016, Vinoth narrated a script to Karthi, who was very impressed and agreed to team up with him, after the release of Kaashmora and Kaatru Veliyidai.

[10] The story was based on true events from Operation Bawaria, which involved the nefarious activity of dacoits and its eventual containment by Tamil Nadu police.

Initially, Vinoth was reluctant on doing a remake, but on Ajith's request and repeated viewings of the original, he accepted to do it under Boney Kapoor's production house, Bayview Projects.

Kapoor, Vinoth, and Ajith entered into a two-film deal that started with Nerkonda Paarvai and a big-budget action thriller, Valimai.
