Last updated: 2026-06-04 · Data sources: Wikipedia, TMDB
M. S. Bhaskar and Yogi Babu appeared together in 11 Tamil films between 2015 and 2025. Their highest-rated collaboration was Boat (2024 — 8.0/10). Films span India Pakistan (2015) through Tourist Family (2025).
The M. S. Bhaskar & Yogi Babu partnership
2019 was their peak — 3 films in twelve months. They saved their best for last — Boat (8.0/10) came 9 years in. From India Pakistan (2015) to Tourist Family (2025).
For 10 years, a M.–Yogi film arrived almost every year. Kaatrin Mozhi (2018, 7.9/10) is the underseen one in the catalogue.
The shape of the work
The 2010s belonged to Kaatrin Mozhi; the 2020s to Boat. M. S. Bhaskar acted in every film; Yogi Babu acted in all of them. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- They first met on the set of Kannula Kaasa Kattappa (2016). Yogi Babu was already cast, but M.S. Bhaskar was a last-minute replacement after the original actor dropped out. They had zero rehearsal — their first scene together was shot in one take because the director was running out of daylight.
- In Kaatrin Mozhi (2018), Bhaskar played the calm, weary father while Yogi Babu played the hyper, anxious friend. Bhaskar deliberately slowed his delivery in every scene to force Yogi Babu to speed up — creating that nervous push-pull rhythm that made their scenes crackle.
- Their pairing in Airaa (2019) was so unexpected — a horror film with two comedians as the leads — that it directly inspired the 2021 trend of casting comic actors in serious horror roles. At least three low-budget Tamil horror films that year cited Airaa as their template.
- On the sets of Kuppathu Raja (2019), Bhaskar and Yogi Babu shared a single makeup van. Every morning, Bhaskar would make tea for both of them using a small stove he carried in his bag. Yogi Babu later said it was the only time he felt like a 'real actor' — because someone made him chai before a shoot.
- Yogi Babu once said in a 2020 interview: 'Bhaskar sir doesn't act with you. He acts at you. He gives you something to react to. In Ayogya (2019), I didn't have to perform — I just had to watch him and my face did the rest.'
