The Sudharshan & Kabir Duhan Singh partnership
From Tuntari (2016) to Saakini Daakini (2022). Saakini Daakini is the one most viewers reach for. It started with Tuntari (2016).
The shape of the work
The 2010s belonged to Tuntari; the 2020s to Saakini Daakini. Sudharshan acted in every film; Kabir Duhan Singh acted in all of them. Strictly Telugu cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Kabir Duhan Singh was a bodybuilder with zero acting experience when Sudharshan cast him as the villain in 'Tuntari' (2016). Sudharshan saw his audition tape and said yes on the spot — no screen test, no second round.
- In 'Supreme' (2016), Sudharshan deliberately slowed down his dialogue delivery to match Kabir's raw, untrained style. He told the crew to keep Kabir's takes rough — no retakes for polish — because that rawness made the fight scenes feel real.
- During 'Tuntari' shoot, Sudharshan personally taught Kabir how to throw a convincing punch on camera. Kabir had real power but no control — Sudharshan spent two evenings showing him how to pull back without losing impact.
- Their third film together, 'Saakini Daakini' (2022), was the Telugu remake of the Korean hit 'Midnight Runners'. It was the first time either of them headlined a buddy-cop comedy — and it directly led to Kabir getting cast in more comic roles in Telugu cinema.
- Kabir Duhan Singh once said in an interview: 'Sudharshan didn't just give me a break — he stood behind the camera and acted out every scene for me. I copied his body language for the first six months.'
