Murali Sharma & Getup Srinu Movies Together List — 4 Films

The shape of the work

Murali Sharma acted in every film; Getup Srinu acted in all of them. Strictly Telugu cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• Getup Srinu was a last-minute replacement in Bhola Shankar (2023). The original actor backed out, and Srinu stepped in just days before the shoot. Murali Sharma personally vouched for him to the director.
• In Jilebi (2024), Murali Sharma deliberately slowed down his dialogue delivery to match Getup Srinu's natural comic timing. Srinu later said that pause gave him space to land every punchline.
• During the Jilebi shoot, Murali Sharma and Getup Srinu shared a room for 45 days. They developed a ritual: every morning, they'd rehearse the day's scene over chai before anyone else arrived on set.
• Getup Srinu said about Murali Sharma after Jilebi: 'He doesn't act with you. He listens to you. That's rare. Most actors are waiting for their turn to speak. Murali waits for your silence.'
• Their pairing in Jilebi (2024) directly led to the director casting them again in S. Saraswathi (2026). The director told press: 'I wrote the father-son track only after seeing how they bounced off each other in Jilebi.'
