Ponnambalam is a veteran actor, who has worked in over 125 movies Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Bollywood. He has shared screen space with Kamal Haasan, Vijay, Ajith, Sarath Kumar, Vijayakanth and most of the A-list actors of Kollywood. He was body-double before turning actor.
Last year, he had taken part in the third season of Bigg Boss Tamil, which was hosted by Kamal Haasan. However, he had created controversy for his misogynistic comments during his stay in the house.
He was last seen in Jayam Ravi's hit movie Comali in 2019.
