Complete Movies List & Collaboration History
Last updated: 2026-06-05 · Data sources: Wikipedia, TMDB
Sathish and Radha Ravi appeared together in 5 Tamil films between 2016 and 2021. Their highest-rated collaboration was Manithan (2016 — 7.3/10). Films span Manithan (2016) through Rajavamsam (2021).
The Sathish & Radha Ravi partnership
Between 2016 and 2021, they barely worked apart — 5 films in 5 years. For 5 years, a Sathish–Radha film arrived almost every year. From Manithan (2016) to Rajavamsam (2021).
Manithan is the one most viewers reach for. It started with Manithan (2016).
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 60% of everything they made together. The 2010s belonged to Manithan; the 2020s to Bhoomi. Sathish acted in every film; Radha Ravi acted in all of them. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Radha Ravi was the one who pushed for Sathish to be cast in Manithan (2016). The director wanted a different actor for the role, but Radha Ravi insisted after seeing Sathish in a small comedy show.
- In Gorilla (2019), Sathish and Radha Ravi played off each other's timing like a comedy relay. Sathish would set up a punchline with his nervous energy, and Radha Ravi would deliver the kill shot with deadpan authority. That rhythm is why the film became a hit despite a 4.7 rating.
- On the sets of Sixer (2019), Sathish and Radha Ravi had a running bet: whoever flubbed a line first had to buy the entire crew tea. Sathish lost almost every day, but he says he never minded because Radha Ravi would use the break to teach him dialogue delivery tricks.
- "Radha Ravi sir doesn't just act with you — he wrestles you into being better. After Manithan, I told him, 'Sir, I'm not a wrestler.' He laughed and said, 'Then learn, or I'll keep pinning you.'" — Sathish, in a 2021 interview about Rajavamsam.
- The success of Gorilla (2019) directly led to the trend of pairing a young comedian with a senior character actor in Tamil comedy-thrillers. At least three films in 2020-21 copied that exact dynamic — including one that cast Sathish again with a different senior actor.
