The Ravi Kishan & Raghu Karumanchi partnership
From Supreme (2016) to 90 ML (2019). It started with Supreme (2016).
The shape of the work
Ravi Kishan acted in every film; Raghu Karumanchi acted in all of them. Strictly Telugu cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Raghu Karumanchi was an assistant director on 'Supreme' (2016). Ravi Kishan saw his energy on set and personally asked the director to let Raghu handle a key action sequence. That one chance turned Raghu into a full-fledged director.
- On '90 ML' (2019), Ravi Kishan would deliberately mess up his lines in the first take just to make Raghu laugh. Raghu said that loosened up the entire crew and got everyone into a comedy rhythm for the rest of the shoot.
- After 'Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy' (2019) wrapped, Raghu Karumanchi drove Ravi Kishan home every single night for two weeks because Ravi's car had broken down. They'd stop for chai and talk about future scripts until 2 AM.
- The success of '90 ML' (2019) directly led to Raghu Karumanchi getting his next directorial project 'Malli Modalaindi' (2022). Ravi Kishan was the one who recommended Raghu to the producers of that film.
- Raghu Karumanchi once said in an interview: 'Ravi Kishan is the only actor who will call me at 4 AM to discuss a single dialogue. I hate him for it, but that's why every scene we did together worked.'
