Hariharasudhen Nagarajan, an electrical engineer by profession, harbours a deep passion for filmmaking and telling stories that are set within intimate, emotionally charged situations. His films often revolve around the complexities and nuances of human connection. Characters in his work are caught between personal desires and societal expectations, trying to grapple with difficult choices.

'Tether', his first feature, is set to deal with a topical subject that’s socially relevant, exploring it through the lens of human empathy. While aiming to be cost-efficient, Hariharasudhen finds himself to be a producer-friendly filmmaker. At the same time, he aims to craft narratives that challenge audiences, to primarily explore themes of love, loss, and dramatic dilemmas. His south Indian origins and subsequent exposure to various languages of cinema, and life in the United States, make him an accessible voice in putting drama to screen.

By far, Hariharasudhen’s short films have been screened at Canadian Screen Award qualifying festivals such as Toronto Black Film Festival (‘Unforgotten’, 'The Sharing'), WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival ('Unforgotten') and Toronto International Hollywood Film Festival ('The Talk'). His above-mentioned first feature “Tether”, has currently been submitted to festivals.
