Nirav Shah (born 16 November 1974) is an acclaimed Indian cinematographer. He has worked on a number of major box office hits in Hindi and Tamil since his debut with the 2004 Hindi film ''Paisa Vasool''. ==Career== After having worked as an assistant to other noted cinematographers and solely on many television advertisements, music videos and short films, Nirav Shah became an independent cinematographer for a "full feature film", debuting with the 2004 Bollywood film ''Paisa Vasool'', following which he worked on another Hindi project ''Intequam'' (2004). It was, however, the Hindi blockbuster film ''Dhoom'' (2004) that made people take notice of Shah, winning him accolades and gaining him fame and popularity. Subsequently Shah got offers from the Tamil film industry as well and moved southwards, debuting in Kollywood with the 2005 Linguswamy-directed action film ''Sandakozhi'', following which he was called up by director Vishnuvardhan. They first teamed up for the 2005 Tamil gangster film ''Pattiyal'', following which Vishnuvardhan worked together with Shah for all his following feature films, creating, along with noted music composer, Yuvan Shankar Raja, one of the most acclaimed and most successful collaborations in the Tamil film industry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vishnuvardhan's 'Sarvam' on the go )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Sarvam is slick" - Vishnu )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Now, 'Billa' rocks Kerala! )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=VishnuVardhans "Pattiyal" )〕 Shah's works in Vishnuvardhan's films including ''Arinthum Ariyamalum'' (2005), ''Billa'' (2007) and the most recent ''Sarvam'' (2008) got high praise and much critical acclaim, turning him into one of the most sought-after young cinematographers in Kollywood. He returned to Bollywood to work on the films ''Banaras'' and the sequel of ''Dhoom'' (both 2006), for which Shah again won accolades and also received several awards and nominations, particular for the latter one. He was signed up by Prabhu Deva for the Vijay-starrer ''Pokkiri'' (2007) and by the director-duo Pushkar-Gayathri for their debut venture ''Oram Po'' (2007). In 2008 then, Nirav Shah was called by noted filmmaker Shankar to handle the camera for his forthcoming magnum opus science-fiction film ''Enthiran'', but Shah had to reject the invitation because he had already given his word to his friend Vishnuvardhan's ''Sarvam''. He went on to work on the Hindi remake of ''Pokkiri'', ''Wanted'', directed again by Prabhu Deva and A. L. Vijay's ''Madrasapattinam''. In July 2009, it was announced that Shah would soon turn film director, directing a film under actor Arya's production, starring Arya's brother Sathya in the lead role.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Arya expands his business )〕 Besides, Shah is currently developing and building India's biggest film studio, located at the Old Mahabalipuram Road off Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, which is said to cost around Rs. 100 crore.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nirav Shah's hi-tech studio costing nearly 100 crores )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nirav Shah's dreamland in tinsel town )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nirav Shah's 100-crore projext )〕 Three of his films have been nominated at the National Award for the Best Cinematographer: ''Banaras'' (Hindi), ''Pattiyal'' (Tamil) and ''Dhoom 2'' (Hindi).
