Summary: Proselytising mythological advocating the ekadashi
‘vrat’ (a ritual fast on the 11th day of the lunar
month). Strongly promoted, it claimed to bring a
new variety to Telugu cinema, featuring scenes
from heaven (Brahmalok) and hell (Yamalok),
‘moulded strictly according to ancient traditions’
(ad in the Andhra Patrika). T. Ramakrishna Sastry,
playing Narada, sings his musical forte, Tarangini,
with the numbers
Ehi mudam dehi and
Veekshe kada
devadevam in the traditional style.
