Following his role as a hero in a few films, he turned his attention to creating the script for a future project that would appeal to teenagers. Then he boarded the Jayam Ravi film, Comali.

Controversy

Following criticism from Rajinikanth's fan base for the Comali trailer, Pradeep Ranganathan gained notoriety. Rajini has made a fool of his political appearance in the movie. An apology video was subsequently released by the production company and Pradeep Ranganathan.

Pradeep once said on stage that the first step in life is difficult for middle-class boys like him to take. As a result, he insisted that every young person's dream should include climbing that first step as challengingly as possible so that they can have excellent potential in their upcoming films.
