His work in both ventures were well appreciated and he subsequently moved on to bigger projects, and won further acclaim for his work in Aamir Khan's production Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na (2008). He subsequently became acquainted with Kamal Haasan and was signed to work on the big-budget, bilingual period film, Marmayogi, before it was shelved.[2][3]
He continued to win acclaim for his work in Wake Up Sid (2009) and Lekar Hum Deewana Dil (2014), while he returned to collaborate with Kamal Haasan on Tamil and Telugu films. In 2014, he exited midway through the production of Revolver Rani (2014) claiming that the producers failed to pay him for his work.[4][5]
