Dhruv Vikram (born 23 September 1997) is an Indian actor, singer and lyricist who works in Tamil films. The son of actor Vikram, he made his acting debut with the 2019 romantic drama Adithya Varma and starred with his father in Mahaan (2022). Since 2022, he has worked primarily as a singer, both on films and non-film songs.
Early life
Dhruv was born on 23 September 1997 in Chennai as the son of actor Vikram and his wife Shailaja. His elder sister Akshita is married to Manuranjith, who is the great-grandson of politician M. Karunanidhi. His paternal grandfather Vinod Raj was also an actor who acted in a few Tamil films.
Career
Dhruv had been approached by Pandiraj to play the role of Anbukkarasu in Pasanga (2008); however, Vikram was then not keen on letting his son get into acting and the role subsequently went to Kishore DS. An English-language short film titled "Good Night Charlie" directed by Dhruv based on child abuse was released in 2016 on YouTube.
Dhruv was to have made his feature film debut with Bala's Varmaa, a remake of the Telugu film Arjun Reddy (2017); however, the release of the film was stalled after the producer was not content about the final product. The film was relaunched as Adithya Varma, directed by Gireesaaya, with Dhruv continuing his role, and released in 2019 with M. Suganth of The Times of India noting that "Dhruv Vikram comes up with a performance that captures Vijay Deverakonda's intense and raw act from the original note for note, but there is an assuredness and honesty here that makes us appreciate it rather than dismiss it just as mimicry". Varmaa had a delayed release in 2020 and Suganth stated that "As for Dhruv Vikram, he is rawer here, looking sure-footed in some scenes and like a novice in some".
Dhruv acted alongside his father in the latter's 60th film, Mahaan which was released directly on 10 February 2022 on Amazon Prime Video. He also wrote and sang a song named "Missing Me" for the film. Later the same year, Dhruv wrote, sang and directed the music video of "Manase", a non-film song composed by Ujwal Gupta. The same year he sang another non-film song "Oru Kaayam", composed by Ujwal Gupta, and the following year "Poomadhiye", composed by Santhosh Narayanan. Dhruv has signed up for Bison directed by Mari Selvaraj, and an untitled film to be directed by Ganesh K. Babu.
