Posani Krishna Murali & Rashi Khanna Movies Together List — 7 Films

The shape of the work

Posani Krishna Murali acted in every film; Rashi Khanna acted in all of them. Strictly Telugu cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• Rashi Khanna was cast opposite Posani Krishna Murali in 'Jil' (2015) because the director wanted a fresh face who could hold her own against his intense monologue style. She later said she was nervous about matching his energy in their first scene together.
• In 'Shivam' (2015), Posani's character delivers a long, rapid-fire rant while Rashi's character just listens and reacts with micro-expressions. She later told a fan that he deliberately slowed down his delivery in rehearsals so she could time her reactions perfectly.
• Their pairing in 'Bengal Tiger' (2015) was so well-received that the producers of 'Supreme' (2016) specifically requested them as a couple again, making them one of the few Telugu pairs to do three films in a single year.
• During the shoot of 'Hyper' (2016), Posani would crack jokes between takes to keep Rashi relaxed. She later revealed that he called her 'baby girl' on set, and they had a running gag where he'd pretend to forget her character's name just to make her laugh.
• Rashi Khanna said in a 2017 interview: 'Posani sir is the only co-star who would rehearse a scene with me 10 times before the director even called action. He made me feel like I was his equal, not just a heroine.'
• In 'Jai Lava Kusa' (2017), their only film where Posani played a negative role, Rashi's character is the one who stands up to him. She said in a behind-the-scenes clip that he insisted on doing the confrontation scene in one take because he wanted her anger to feel real and unbroken.
