Gunasundari Katha
Directed by Kadri Venkata Reddy
This is the first Telugu film to complete 100 days of theatrical run in 10 centers. William Shakespeare's play King Lear was the inspiration for the core plot. But the writers changed the tone from the tragedy of King Lear to a more entertaining one for the film.
