The Shraddha Das & Naresh partnership
From Mogudu (2011) to Imsai Arasi (2020). Guntur Talkies is the one most viewers reach for. It started with Mogudu (2011).
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 75% of everything they made together. The 2010s belonged to Guntur Talkies ; the 2020s to Imsai Arasi. Shraddha Das acted in every film; Naresh acted in all of them. Mostly Telugu, with 1 film in Tamil.
Partnership facts
- Shraddha Das was cast opposite Naresh in 'Mogudu' (2011) only after the original heroine walked out over a scheduling clash. Naresh personally called her to step in, and she agreed within 24 hours.
- In 'Guntur Talkies' (2016), Naresh deliberately slowed down his dialogue delivery to match Shraddha's natural rhythm. She later said that pause gave her space to react, making their argument scene the most talked-about in the film.
- During the shoot of 'Imsai Arasi' (2020), Naresh would bring Shraddha homemade biryani from his wife's kitchen every Sunday. She still calls him 'Anna' off-camera.
- The success of 'Imsai Arasi' (2020) directly led to a spin-off web series concept featuring Shraddha's character — but Naresh's scheduling conflicts killed the project. The series never got made.
- Shraddha Das said in a 2021 interview: 'Naresh garu is the only co-star who taught me how to cry on cue without glycerin. He'd just look at me with those tired eyes and I'd break.'
