The Singampuli & Robo Shankar partnership
From Ka Ka Ka Po (2016) to Desingu Raja 2 (2025). Their most recent film, Desingu Raja 2, came out in 2025 — the partnership is still active. It started with Ka Ka Ka Po (2016).
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 80% of everything they made together. The 2010s belonged to Ka Ka Ka Po; the 2020s to Desingu Raja 2. Singampuli acted in every film; Robo Shankar acted in all of them. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Robo Shankar wasn't the first choice for 'Ka Ka Ka Po' (2016). The director wanted a different comedian, but Singampuli insisted on casting Robo Shankar after seeing his stage act. He even delayed the shoot by a week to lock him in.
- In 'Kadavul Irukaan Kumaru' (2016), Singampuli played the straight man to Robo Shankar's chaos. Singampuli would deliberately flub his lines in rehearsals to throw Robo Shankar off, forcing him to improvise on the spot. That tension made their scenes feel alive.
- On the sets of 'Jeyikkira Kuthira' (2017), the two shared a room during the entire outdoor schedule. Robo Shankar would wake up at 4 AM to practice his lines aloud, and Singampuli would join him — not to rehearse, but to critique his timing. They called it 'morning class'.
- Robo Shankar once said in a 2018 interview: 'Singampuli is the only co-star who can make me forget my own lines. He stares at me with those eyes and I start laughing before the scene even begins.'
- Their double-act in 'Ka Ka Ka Po' (2016) directly inspired the comedy track in the 2018 film 'Kalakalappu 2'. The writer admitted in a behind-the-scenes video that he rewatched their scenes to study how two comedians could share screen time without stepping on each other's punchlines.
