Sujatha & Mohan Babu Movies Together List — 5 Films

The shape of the work

The 1990s account for 60% of everything they made together. The 1970s belonged to Annan Oru Koyil; the 1990s to Annamayya. Sujatha acted in every film; Mohan Babu acted in all of them. Mostly Tamil, with 2 films in Telugu.

Partnership facts

• Mohan Babu was still a supporting actor when Sujatha was already a star. Their first film together, Annan Oru Koyil (1977), was a Tamil-Telugu bilingual — and Sujatha specifically requested Mohan Babu for the Telugu version after seeing his work in Tamil.
• In Yamadharma Raju (1990), Sujatha played a strict mother while Mohan Babu played her son. The entire emotional weight of the film rested on their confrontations — she set the stern tone, and he matched it with vulnerability, something he rarely showed opposite other heroines.
• Mohan Babu has said in interviews that Sujatha was the only co-star who would call him by his real name (Mohan) on set, not his screen name. Everyone else called him 'Babu garu' — she never did.
• Mohan Babu once said: 'Sujatha garu is the only actress who made me nervous. Not because she was a star — because she would correct my dialogue delivery in front of the whole unit.'
• Their pairing in Annamayya (1997) was a late-career reunion — and it directly led to Mohan Babu casting Sujatha as his mother again in his own production Rayalaseema Ramanna Chowdary (2000), a film that became a cult hit in the Rayalaseema belt.
