Trivikram Srinivas (born Akella Naga Srinivasa Sarma; 7 November 1971), often credited with his Pen name Trivikram also called Guruji and 3V at times, is an Indian film director and screenwriter who works in Telugu cinema.[1] He is one of the highest-paid directors in South Indian cinema.[2][3][4][5][6][7] He has garnered six state Nandi Awards for Best Dialogue Writer and two Filmfare Awards for Best Director. In 2015, he received the BN Reddy National Award for his contribution to Indian cinema.[8]
A university gold medalist with a master's degree in Nuclear physics, Trivikram initially had no plans to enter the entertainment industry, but his interest in film and Telugu literature led him to become a screenwriter, and later a film director.[9] He is known among the Telugu audience by the epithets "Maatala Maantrikudu" (transl. Wizard of Words), and "Guruji" (transl. The Master).[3][5][6] His film craft is identified by its creative and quick-witted dialogue, humourous content, fast-paced repartee mixed with action, mythological references, courtship drama, importance of women in this world, and issues in relationships.[4][6] Some of his films are noted for integrating ideas from Hindu philosophy into mainstream popular cinema.[10]
In 2000, he wrote the dialogues for Nuvve Kavali, which won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Telugu. His Telugu directorial debut film Nuvve Nuvve (2002) won the Nandi Award for Best Feature Film (Silver). His other writing and directorial works include films such as Swayamvaram (1999), Chiru Navvutho (2000), Nuvvu Naaku Nachav (2001), Manmadhudu (2002), Malliswari (2004), Jai Chiranjeeva (2005), Athadu (2005), Jalsa (2008), Khaleja (2010), Julayi (2012), Attarintiki Daredi (2013), S/O Satyamurthy (2015), A Aa (2016), Agnyaathavaasi (2018), Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava (2018), Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo (2020) and Guntur Kaaram (2024).

Amid this flood of bitter-sweet good-for-nothings have come 'Vedam', 'Gamyam' (Destination), 'Athadu' (He), 'Chirunavvutho' (With a smile) and 'Khaleja' (Courage), that are based on the Vedantic ideals. And the minds behind this 'philosophical revolution' are directors Radhakrishna, popularly known as Krish, and Trivikram Srinivas. Trivikram's characterisation of the protagonist in almost all his films as a detached and stoic man with Daivi (divine) qualities has earned him laurels.
