Aravind Akash & Yogi Babu Movies Together List — 6 Films

The shape of the work

The 2010s account for 67% of everything they made together. The 2010s belonged to Viswasam; the 2020s to Tamilarasan. Aravind Akash acted in every film; Yogi Babu acted in all of them. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• Aravind Akash and Yogi Babu first shared screen space in 'Kannula Kaasa Kattappa' (2016) because the director needed a pair of comedians who could bounce off each other without stepping on punchlines. Yogi was already a rising face, but Aravind was still finding his footing — the director bet on their contrasting energies to carry the comedy track.
• In 'LKG' (2019), Yogi Babu played the straight man while Aravind Akash did the frantic, reactive comedy. Yogi would deliberately slow down his delivery to force Aravind to fill the silence — a trick they kept using in later films like '90 ML' (2019) to make the timing feel more natural.
• Their double-act in 'Viswasam' (2019) — where they played village sidekicks who bicker constantly — became so popular that the film's comedy track was extended in the final cut. That scene where they argue over a stolen chicken is still a staple in Tamil TV comedy compilations.
• During the shoot of '90 ML' (2019), Aravind and Yogi shared a room in a budget lodge near the set because the production couldn't afford separate rooms. They'd rehearse lines late into the night, often rewriting each other's dialogues on the spot. Yogi later said that's where they figured out their rhythm.
