He worked as assistant director in feature films 5 Sundarikal (2013) and Last Supper (2014). His first movie as a director was KL 10 Patthu (2015).[8][9] In 2016, He returned with Funeral of a Native Son, a sequel to Native Bappa.[10] Muhsin co-wrote the movie Sudani from Nigeria with director Zakariya Mohammed in 2018.[11][12] The movie received five Kerala State Film Awards including the one for Best Screenplay.[13] His next release was Virus, directed by Aashiq Abu. The movie was set against the backdrop of the 2018 Nipah virus outbreak in Kerala. Muhsin co-wrote the screenplay with the duo Suhas-Sharfu.[14][15][16] His 2020 release was Halal Love Story, second feature by Zakariya Mohammed after Sudani from Nigeria. Zakariya and Muhsin again joined to write the script and also credited as co-producers of the movie.[17][18][19]

Muhsin is the writer and creative director of 2022 movie Thallumaala (dir:Khalid Rahman).[20] The movie was announced in 2019 as his second directorial venture, but later in February 2020, Muhsin Parari announced that he would do the script part only, and Khalid Rahman would be the director.[21] The movie was big commercial success and turned out to be ninth-highest grossing Malayalam film.[22]

He is also a noted lyricist,[23][24][1] and has penned songs in movies such as Thamaasha, Halal Love Story, Bheemante Vazhi, Thallumaala and Sulaikha Manzil.[25][26]
