Aishwarya Rajesh & Raadhika Sarathkumar Movies Together List — 3 Films

The shape of the work

The 2010s belonged to Dharma Durai; the 2020s to Vaanam Kottattum. Aishwarya Rajesh acted in every film; Raadhika Sarathkumar acted in all of them. Strictly Tamil cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

• Aishwarya Rajesh was cast in Dharma Durai (2016) only after Raadhika Sarathkumar personally recommended her to director Seenu Ramasamy. Raadhika had seen Aishwarya's work in Kaaka Muttai and insisted she was the right fit for the role.
• In Dharma Durai, Raadhika played the stern mother-in-law while Aishwarya played the daughter-in-law. Their confrontation scene in the kitchen was shot in one continuous take because both actresses refused to break character — Raadhika's silence pushed Aishwarya to deliver her lines with escalating desperation.
• The success of Vaanam Kottattum (2020) directly led to Raadhika Sarathkumar producing a web series specifically to cast Aishwarya Rajesh as the lead. That series, 'Rekka', was announced in 2021 but later shelved — but it was the first time Raadhika backed a project solely because of a co-star.
• During the shoot of Mupparimanam (2017), Raadhika would bring homemade biryani for the entire crew every Friday — but she always packed a separate box for Aishwarya with extra chicken and no onion, because Aishwarya had mentioned she was allergic to raw onion. Raadhika remembered that detail from a single conversation months earlier.
• Raadhika Sarathkumar said about Aishwarya Rajesh in a 2020 interview: 'She is the only actress I've worked with who made me forget my lines. In Vaanam Kottattum, there's a scene where she just looks at me and cries — I lost my dialogue because I was so moved. I told the director, cut, let me compose myself.'
