Summary: Sandow’s elaborately scripted melodrama
introduced the complicated Tamil entertainment
formula into Telugu cinema. Madhusudhan
(Anjaneyulu) is an Oxford graduate and a Madras-
based businessman. Choodamani (Pushpavalli) is a
beautiful rural orphan who turns down villain
Raghava Rao’s offer of marriage. The villain is
joined by Madhuri, a cranky woman seduced and
abandoned by the hero, and they make trouble at
Madhusudhan and Choodamani’s wedding.
Madhuri bears the hero’s child but strangles the
baby and abandons it in a garbage can but she is
caught by Raghava Rao who blackmails the hero
into bankruptcy and even causes the hero to
suspect his own wife of adultery. In a fit of rage
he murders his own child but the infant is
magically revived by a holy man. The film has a
clown, Girisan, who leaves his wife to adopt a
Western lifestyle, ending up as a barber.
