From Lakshmi Kalyanam (2007) to Sita (2019). Nene Raju Nene Mantri is the one most viewers reach for.
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 75% of everything they made together. The 2000s belonged to Lakshmi Kalyanam; the 2010s to Nene Raju Nene Mantri. Kajal Aggarwal acted in every film; Teja directed all of them. Mostly Telugu, with 1 film in Tamil.
Partnership facts
- Kajal Aggarwal and Teja's first film together, Lakshmi Kalyanam (2007), was Teja's debut as a lead actor. It launched his career in Telugu cinema.
- In Sita (2019), Kajal's character and Teja's character share a scene where she slaps him — that moment became a meme template on Telugu social media for 'instant karma'.
- Nene Raju Nene Mantri (2017) was the first time Kajal and Teja played a married couple on screen. Their chemistry in that film convinced producers to cast them again in Sita (2019).
- Teja once said in an interview: 'Kajal is the only heroine who has seen me grow from a newcomer to where I am today. She never treated me like a junior artist.'
- Their fourth film together, Sita (2019), was a commercial hit — it ran for over 50 days in 25+ centers across Andhra and Telangana, a rare feat for a female-led action film.
- The song 'Nee Choopule' from Nene Raju Nene Mantri (2017) became a wedding playlist staple in Telugu households — fans still associate that romantic track with Kajal and Teja's on-screen pairing.
