Vijay & Azhagam Perumal Movies Together List — 3 Films

The shape of the work

The 2000s belonged to Udhaya; the 2010s to Theri. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• In Theri (2016), Azhagam Perumal played the ruthless villain Kali Muniandy — and his line 'Enna koduma sir idhu?' became a meme template across Tamil social media for years.
• Their first film together, Udhaya (2004), was Vijay's first collaboration with a then-unknown Azhagam Perumal — and it marked the start of Perumal's transition from stage actor to mainstream cinema villain.
• Jilla (2014) was the only film where Azhagam Perumal played a comedic sidekick to Vijay, not a villain — and it still collected over ₹100 crore worldwide, their highest-grossing collaboration.
• The fight scene in Theri (2016) where Vijay's character beats Azhagam Perumal's goons with a belt is still replayed in Tamil gyms as a workout inspiration clip.
