B Studios is an Indian film producer and film distributor company headed by Bala. In the recent past, B Studios has financed several of Bala's directorial ventures, and other films by filmmakers including Mysskin and Sarkunam.
History
In September 2004, director Bala revealed that he had launched his own production house, B Studios, to "give opportunity for new talent". He announced his intentions of producing two films a year and also venturing into ad films. Subsequently, the first venture was
Maayavi (2005) directed by
Singampuli, a comedy film starring
Suriya and
Jyothika in the lead roles.
As a result of their association in
Naan Kadavul in late 2005, B Studios agreed to produce
Ajith Kumar's
Paramasivan (2006), but later opted out.
B Studios were also briefly involved with the production of Vishnuvardhan's
Sarvam (2009) during June 2006, when the film was announced with
Suriya and Ileana D'Cruz in the lead roles. Initially planned as a co-production with
Studio Green, the film failed to progress and was released with different makers and a different cast in 2009.
Following the release of Naan Kadavul in early 2009, Bala announced that he would finance another film with Suriya for director Singampuli and a film with Jayam Ravi for Aacharya Ravi, but neither materialised. Bala has since financed his own projects, as well as individual films from Mysskin and Sarkunam.
