The Murli Sharma & Munish Kanth partnership
From Kennedy Club (2019) to Aalambana (2023). Their most recent film, Aalambana, came out in 2023 — the partnership is still active. It started with Kennedy Club (2019).
The shape of the work
The 2010s belonged to Kennedy Club; the 2020s to Aalambana. Murli Sharma acted in every film; Munish Kanth acted in all of them. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Murli Sharma was the one who pushed for Munish Kanth to co-write Kennedy Club. The director wanted a more experienced writer, but Murli insisted Munish had the right 'street energy' for the gangster comedy. That script became their first hit together.
- In Aalambana (2022), Murli would deliberately flub his lines in the first take to make Munish laugh. Munish then used that real irritation in his performance — the scene where his character snaps at Murli's character is actually him reacting to a genuine prank.
- The success of Aalambana (2023) directly led to a spin-off web series focused on their comic duo. The series was greenlit within two weeks of the film crossing 40 crores, but was shelved when Munish signed a multi-film deal with a rival production house.
- They have a standing bet: whoever forgets a line first on set has to buy the other biryani from the same shop in T. Nagar. Munish has paid for 11 biryanis so far; Murli has paid for 3.
- "Munish is the only actor who can make me forget I'm acting. When he's in the scene, I'm just a guy reacting to another guy — no camera, no lights." — Murli Sharma, during a 2023 press meet for Aalambana.
