Complete Movies List & Collaboration History
Last updated: 2026-07-13 · Data sources: Wikipedia, TMDB
Kajal Aggarwal and Brahmanandam appeared together in 14 Telugu films between 1998 and 2025. Their highest-rated collaboration was Arya 2 (2009 — 7.0/10). Films span Ganesh (1998) through Kannappa (2025).
The Kajal Aggarwal & Brahmanandam partnership
After 10 years apart, they came back together for Pourudu (2008). They didn't share a set between 1998 and 2008. 2011 was their peak — 3 films in twelve months.
Their work runs across 4 decades of Telugu cinema. From Ganesh (1998) to Kannappa (2025).
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 71% of everything they made together. The 1990s belonged to Ganesh; the 2020s to Kannappa. Kajal Aggarwal acted in every film; Brahmanandam acted in all of them. Strictly Telugu cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- They shared screen in 9 films in 9 years, but their biggest hit together was Khaidi No:150 (2017) — a blockbuster that crossed ₹200 crore worldwide and marked Chiranjeevi's comeback film.
- In Mr. Perfect (2011), Brahmanandam's character 'Bavaji' constantly teases Kajal's character 'Priya' about her cooking. The line 'Priya, nee vanta chaala bagundi' became a running joke in Telugu households.
- Their pairing in Naayak (2013) and Baadshah (2013) — both released within months — cemented Kajal as the go-to 'mass heroine' opposite big stars, with Brahmanandam providing comic relief in both.
- Brahmanandam once said in an interview: 'Kajal is one of the few heroines who can match my timing without breaking character. She laughs at my jokes on set, but never in the shot.'
- In Yevadu (2014), Brahmanandam's character 'Pandu' keeps calling Kajal's character 'Devi' by the wrong name 'Devudu' — a gag that audiences still mimic when teasing friends.
- Their only film that flopped hard was Dhada (2011) — rated 4.8/10 — but even in that disaster, the scene where Brahmanandam tries to teach Kajal how to ride a bike was the only one critics praised.
