Kajal Aggarwal & Samantha Akkineni Movies Together List — 4 Films

The shape of the work

Kajal Aggarwal acted in every film; Samantha Akkineni acted in all of them. Mostly Telugu, with 1 film in Tamil.

Partnership facts

• Their 2016 film Janatha Garage collected over ₹100 crore worldwide, making it the first Telugu film to cross that mark without a solo male superstar — both Kajal and Samantha were credited as equal leads.
• In Mersal (2017), Kajal and Samantha played the two love interests of a magician — and the scene where they both slap him in sync became a meme template in Tamil and Telugu social media for years.
• Brindavanam (2010) was the first time both actresses shared screen space as friends in a film — and their on-screen chemistry directly led to them being cast together again in three more movies, a rare repeat pairing for Telugu heroines.
• Samantha once said in an interview: 'Kajal and I have a weird comfort level. We don't need to talk much on set. We just look at each other and know what the scene needs.'
• Mersal (2017) earned over ₹250 crore worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film featuring both Kajal and Samantha together — and the only Tamil film in their shared filmography.
• In Brahmotsavam (2016), their characters were sisters — and the film's family song 'Brathakali' became a wedding playlist staple in Andhra and Telangana, even though the movie itself flopped.
