His younger son, Dhyan Sreenivasan, made his debut in Thira, a thriller movie directed by his brother.
Sreenivasan is an acclaimed screenwriter, actor, filmmaker, and producer in Malayalam cinema known for his satirical black comedies.
He is most popular for scripting T.P. Balagopalan M.A., Sanmanassullavarkku Samadhanam, Gandhinagar 2nd Street, Nadodikkattu, Mukunthetta Sumitra Vilikkunnu, Varavelppu, Thalayanamanthram, Sandesham, Midhunam, Azhakiya Ravanan and Udayananu Tharam.
As a filmmaker, he has made and scripted Vadakkunokkiyantram and Chinthavishtayaya Shyamala.
Sreenivasan entered the film industry with the 1977 P.A. Backer movie Chuchumani after finishing a course in acting from the Film Chamber Institute.
In the film institute he was coached by the then vice principal A. Prabhakaran and who later gave him a role in his movie Mela. A few movie roles later, he wrote his first film Oodarathuammava Aalariyam in 1984.
His most famous movies as actor-writer include Gandhinagar 2nd Street, Nadodikkattu and its two sequels, Vadakku Nooki Yanthram, Chinthavishtayaya Shyamala and Chithram.
Much of Sreenivasan’s movies depict problems affecting society, although these are portrayed in a comical manner. Some of his successful films include Sandesham, Vellanakaludey Naadu, and Varavelpu.
Mostly satirical in nature, his acrimonious and humorous lines are directed against matters as diverse as police brutality, pulp magazines and unproductive labour unions.
Excellent characterization, witty (often deadpan) dialogues and self-depreciating humour are trademarks of Sreenivasan movies.
His writing very often pokes fun at himself, mostly at his own unglamourous appearances, and have become commonplace in scenes with costar Mohanlal.
