Amala Paul & Anushka Shetty Movies Together List — 3 Films

The shape of the work

Amala Paul acted in every film; Anushka Shetty acted in all of them.

Partnership facts

• Amala Paul was just 19 when she signed Deiva Thirumagal (2011) opposite Anushka Shetty. She later admitted she was terrified of acting alongside the already-established star, but Anushka personally calmed her down on set.
• In Nanna (2011), Anushka played a mother and Amala played her daughter — even though Anushka is only 6 years older. Amala later said Anushka's maternal energy on set made the age gap feel believable.
• After Nanna (2011), the two stayed in touch and even vacationed together in Goa. Amala posted a photo of them on a beach with the caption 'My forever sister.'
• Amala Paul once said in an interview: 'Anushka is the only co-star who made me forget the camera. She doesn't act — she lives the scene, and you just follow.'
• Their pairing in Deiva Thirumagal (2011) was so well-received that it directly inspired a Tamil remake titled Deiva Thirumagal (2011) — but the remake swapped Amala for a different actress, which fans still debate.
• In NTR Kathanayakudu (2019), they played mother and son — reversing their Nanna (2011) dynamic. Amala later joked they 'aged each other up and down' across their three films.
