Murali Sharma and Tulasi appeared together in 4 Telugu films between 2023 and 2026. Their highest-rated collaboration was Shivam Bhaje (2024 — 7.0/10). Films span Bhola Shankar (2023) through S. Saraswathi (2026).
The Murali Sharma & Tulasi partnership
Between 2023 and 2026, they barely worked apart — 4 films in 3 years. From Bhola Shankar (2023) to S. Saraswathi (2026). Their most recent film, S. Saraswathi, came out in 2026 — the partnership is still active.
Shivam Bhaje is the one most viewers reach for. It started with Bhola Shankar (2023).
The shape of the work
Murali Sharma acted in every film; Tulasi acted in all of them. Strictly Telugu cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Tulasi was the one who pushed for Murali Sharma to play her father in Bhola Shankar (2023). The director wanted a younger actor, but she insisted he had the right gravitas for the emotional beats.
- In Shivam Bhaje (2024), Murali Sharma deliberately slowed down his dialogue delivery in their scenes together. He told Tulasi on set that her natural rhythm was faster, so he adjusted his pace to let her reactions land first — making their father-daughter tension feel real.
- Between takes on Bhola Shankar, Murali Sharma would quiz Tulasi about her theater background. He later admitted he learned more about emotional modulation from her one-hour stories than from any acting workshop.
- "She doesn't act — she becomes. I had to stop acting and just listen." — Murali Sharma on working with Tulasi in Shivam Bhaje, during a 2024 pre-release interview.
- Their pairing in Shivam Bhaje (2024) directly inspired the casting of a real-life father-daughter duo in a 2025 OTT series. The showrunner said he wanted that same "unspoken tension" they brought to the courtroom scenes.
