YNOT Studios (stylised as Y?NOT) is an Indian film production company in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, established by producer S. Sashikanth. As of 2023, the company has produced 21 feature films, which includes productions made in the Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi film industries of India. It has collaborated with filmmakers including Sudha Kongara, Balaji Mohan, Pushkar–Gayathri and Karthik Subbaraj.
YNOT Studios' first release was Tamil cinema's first parody film Thamizh Padam (2010), which featured a predominantly new technical crew and a rookie star cast. The film became a commercial success and the first of many "new-wave cinema" projects that the company chose to specialise in.[1] Subsequent successful ventures included Balaji Mohan's romantic comedy films Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Yeppadi (2013) and Vaayai Moodi Pesavum (2014), which were recognised by critics for their innovative narratives. The company also produced Vasanthabalan's period drama Kaaviya Thalaivan (2014), which focused on the competition between two theatre artistes in the 1930s and had a popular soundtrack composed by A. R. Rahman.
YNOT Studios produced several profitable films from 2016 onwards, with Sudha Kongara's sports drama Irudhi Suttru (2016), being made in three different languages. Many of their following films, Pushkar–Gayathri's crime drama Vikram Vedha (2017), Prasanna's comedy-drama Shubh Mangal Saavdhan (2017), C. S. Amudhan's Tamizh Padam 2 (2018) and Ashwin Saravanan's psychological thriller Game Over (2019) were commercial successes.
