The Sonu Sood & Brahmaji partnership
Their work runs across 3 decades of Telugu cinema. From Ek Niranjan (2009) to Alludu Adhurs (2021). It started with Ek Niranjan (2009).
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 60% of everything they made together. The 2000s belonged to Ek Niranjan; the 2020s to Alludu Adhurs. Sonu Sood acted in every film; Brahmaji acted in all of them. Mostly Telugu, with 1 film in Tamil.
Partnership facts
- Brahmaji was the one who suggested Sonu Sood for the villain role in Julai (2012). The director Trivikram Srinivas initially had someone else in mind, but Brahmaji insisted Sonu had the right mix of menace and style.
- In Julai, Brahmaji played Sonu's sidekick on screen. Off-screen, Brahmaji would deliberately slow down his dialogue delivery during rehearsals so Sonu — still learning Telugu — could catch every word and match his timing.
- During the Aagadu (2014) shoot, Sonu Sood and Brahmaji shared a vanity van for three months. Brahmaji taught Sonu how to cook Andhra-style chicken curry between shots. Sonu still makes it at home.
- Brahmaji once said in a 2017 interview: 'Sonu is the only co-star who would call me at 2 AM to ask if I ate dinner. He treated me like family, not a colleague.'
- Their pairing in Julai (2012) — a towering villain and his comic sidekick — became a template that director Trivikram reused in later films like S/o Satyamurthy (2015) with other actors.
