'''Devaraj–Mohan''' was a directing duo of the Indian film industry, mainly of [[Tamil language|Tamil]]-language films.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Baskaran |first=S.

The duo is also notable for launching one of the most prolific Indian composers, [[Ilaiyaraaja]] through their film ''[[Annakili]]''.<br />
<br />
Actor [[Sivakumar]] played the lead in most of their films. After 1980, the duo split and Devaraj directed some films. Mohan died in 2012,<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-10-02 |title=ராபர்ட்-ராஜசேகர், பாரதி - வாசு வரிசையில் ஒரு இரட்டை இயக்குனர்கள்.. இளையராஜாவுக்கு முதல் வாய்ப்பு..! |url=https://tamilminutes.com/entertainment/devaraj-mohan-duo-directors-introduced-ilaiyaraja-as-music-director-200184/ |access-date=2025-05-01 |website=Tamil Minutes |language=ta}}</ref> and Devaraj died by 2018.<ref>{{Cite web |title=டியூனுக்கு எழுதுவதில் சிக்கல்! - கவிஞர் முத்துலிங்கம் |url=https://www.dinamani.com/weekly-supplements/dinamani-kondattam/2018/aug/05/%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%AF%E0%AF%82%E0%AE%A9%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%81-%E0%AE%8E%E0%AE%B4%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%A4%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%8D-%E0%AE%9A%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%8D---%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%9E%E0%AE%B0%E0%AF%8D-%E0%AE%AE%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%B2%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%99%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%AE%E0%AF%8D-2974347.html |access-date=2023-05-21 |website=Dinamani |language=ta |archive-date=21 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230521155226/https://www.dinamani.com/weekly-supplements/dinamani-kondattam/2018/aug/05/%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%AF%E0%AF%82%E0%AE%A9%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%81-%E0%AE%8E%E0%AE%B4%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%A4%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%8D-%E0%AE%9A%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%8D---%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%9E%E0%AE%B0%E0%AF%8D-%E0%AE%AE%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%B2%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%99%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%AE%E0%AF%8D-2974347.html |url-status=live }}</ref><br />
