Mumbai: R Madhavan, fondly called Maddy, turns 49 today (June 1). He began his acting career with guest appearances on TV and later gained popularity in the Tamil film industry through Mani Ratnam's romantic film Alaipayuthey in 2000.

 

The actor has not looked back since. He has won many hearts as a hero. In the mid-2000s he entered Bollywood. Madhavan managed to create the same magic in Hindi cinema as he did in the Tamil film industry. We saw him as an adorable young man romancing Dia Mirza in Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein. He starred with Saif Ali Khan in Rang De Basanti. Who can forget him in the role of a dashing Indian Air Force flight lieutenant Ajay Singh Rathod? Of course, 3 Idiots wouldn’t have been complete without R Madhavan aka Farhan Qureshi.

He won us over in the Tanu Weds Manu franchise with his helpless, innocent, in-love avatar. Last year, he almost broke the internet with his shirtless selfie.

Madhavan will be seen playing the role of the rocket scientist Nambi Narayanan in the biopic titled Rocketry: The Nambi Effect. Madhavan will be captured in a never-before-seen role for which he left no stone unturned to get into the skin of the character.

The film will be a trilingual, in English, Hindi and Tamil and has been shot extensively across India, Princeton, Scotland, France and Russia.

The actor shows next to no signs of ageing and today on his 49th birthday, we take a look at a few pictures of the actor.
