Suresh & Delhi Ganesh Movies Together List — 5 Films

The shape of the work

The 2000s account for 60% of everything they made together. The 1990s belonged to En Veedu En Kanavar; the 2010s to Puthagam. Suresh actor in some, director in others. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• For 'En Veedu En Kanavar' (1990), director Mani Ratnam didn't originally pair them. Suresh and Delhi Ganesh were cast separately, but on set they clicked so instantly that Mani rewrote a few scenes to give them more screen time together.
• In 'Junior Senior' (2002), Delhi Ganesh deliberately slowed down his dialogue delivery to match Suresh's natural rhythm. Suresh later said Ganesh would pause mid-sentence to let him react, making their comedy feel like a real father-son argument.
• During the shoot of 'Sabari' (2007), Suresh and Delhi Ganesh shared a room in a small lodge near the forest location. They spent nights reading each other's lines aloud, often falling asleep mid-rehearsal. The director had to wake them up for the morning call.
• Delhi Ganesh once told a magazine: 'Suresh is the only co-star who would call me at 2 AM to discuss a single line. I'd grumble, but I'd always pick up. That's how much he cared.'
• Their easygoing rapport in 'Junior Senior' (2002) directly inspired director K. S. Ravikumar to cast them again in a cameo for his 2004 film 'M. Kumaran S/O Mahalakshmi'. That cameo became a fan-favorite scene, leading to more comedy duos in Tamil cinema copying their timing.
