The Ritika Singh & Mumtaz Sorcar partnership
From Irudhi Suttru (2016) to Guru (2017). Irudhi Suttru is the one most viewers reach for. It started with Irudhi Suttru (2016).
The shape of the work
Ritika Singh acted in every film; Mumtaz Sorcar acted in all of them.
Partnership facts
- Ritika Singh was a real-life MMA fighter with zero acting experience when director Sudha Kongara cast her opposite Mumtaz Sorcar in Irudhi Suttru. Mumtaz, a trained actress, had to teach Ritika how to deliver lines without punching the air.
- In Irudhi Suttru, Mumtaz played the polished, manipulative boxing federation official while Ritika played the raw, rebellious fighter. Their on-screen tension came from real-life contrast: Mumtaz would rehearse her lines in perfect English, Ritika would respond in broken Tamil — and they kept that mismatch in the final cut.
- During the shoot of Guru (2017), Ritika would drag Mumtaz to her MMA gym after pack-up. Mumtaz later admitted she couldn't throw a single proper punch, but Ritika refused to let her skip training — so Mumtaz ended up learning basic boxing just to keep up with her co-star.
- Mumtaz Sorcar once said about Ritika: 'She would hit me for real in fight scenes. I told her, “Ritika, this is cinema, not UFC.” She just laughed and said, “But it looks more real, na?”'
- Because Ritika and Mumtaz played rivals in Irudhi Suttru, Tamil cinema suddenly got a wave of female-led sports dramas with two strong women facing off — directly inspiring films like Bigil (2019) and Sarpatta Parambarai (2021) to cast actresses in physically demanding, antagonistic roles.
