Bharathan is an Indian film director who has worked on Tamil language films.

He initially began his career as an assistant director to film director Dharani and penned dialogues for the director's Vikram-starrer Dhill (2001) and Vijay-starrer Ghilli (2004), as well as for Madhesh's Madhurey (2004). Since then, he has intermittently been credited as a dialogue writer, most notably working on Ajith Kumar's Veeram (2014) which was directed by Siva.

Bharathan made his directorial debut with the thriller film Azhagiya Tamil Magan (2007) starring Vijay and Shriya Saran in the lead roles. Despite having a renowned technical crew, including music composed by A. R. Rahman, the film failed commercially at the box office. His second film, the thriller Athithi (2014) featuring Nandha and Nikesh Ram, opened to mixed reviews and had a low key release. He later worked with Vijay again in Bairavaa (2017), with the film taking a strong opening at the box office.
