His next two films Kutty (2010) and Uthamaputhiran (2010), both again remakes and again featuring Dhanush in the lead role, also became successful. In 2014, Jawahar began work on Saamiyattam, a remake of the Telugu film Swamy Ra Ra, produced and featuring Srikanth in the lead role, but it was later shelved.
