Career
Sooryan was also an assistant to P. C. Sreeram.[1] He debuted with the movie Yuddham Sei (2011). In a review of the film by The Hindu, a critic noted that "Cinematographer Sathya's contribution is crucial — his lens and lighting accentuate the suspense and eeriness of the drama".[2] His work in the movie Maya was critically acclaimed.[3][4] Cinematography in the film Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru was lauded by critics.[5] In a review of the film by The Times of India, the reviewer wrote that "cinematographer Sathyan Sooryan’s wide frames, which turn the sun-burnt, unforgiving terrain into a parallel antagonist, make it a film that needs to be savoured on the big screen".[6][7] In 2019, he worked for the film Kaithi. His work in the film was well appreciated.[8] He made his Telugu debut with the biographical film Yatra.[1]
