Anbumani and Arivumani, jointly known as Anbariv, are an Indian duo of brothers, who are action choreographers and stunt coordinators in Tamil cinema, Telugu cinema, Malayalam cinema, Kannada cinema, and Hindi cinema.[1][2] The duo are well known for their action sequences in films such as Madras (2014), Kabali (2016), and KGF: Chapter 1 (2018).

Early life
[edit]Anbumani, also known as Anbu, and Arivumani or Arivu, were born as twins and were raised up in Pulhal.[4]
Career
[edit]It was Anbu who joined the film industry initially before his twin brother Arivu. Both of them initially served as training assistants to some of the leading stunt masters in the Indian film industry including Stun Siva, Peter Hein, Vijayan, Kecha Khamphakdee, Silva and Dinesh Subbarayan.[5]
The duo debuted in Kollywood as assistant stunt directors in the 2010 film Naan Mahaan Alla before becoming prominent full fledged stunt choreographers in Indian cinema.[6]
In 2018, the duo was suspended from the South Indian Cine and TV Stunt Artistes Union for allegations on violating the union rules and code of ethics regarding the stunt sequences and action performances.[7] The court granted relief to the duo and allowed to rejoin the union.[8]
Anbariv received the National Award for K.G.F: Chapter 1 as the Best Stunt Choreographer at the 66th National Film Awards which was held in August 2019.[9]
The duo will be making their directorial debut with Kamal Haasan's 237th film tentatively titled KH237.[10]
