Reddy (Patala Bhairavi, 1951; Maya Bazaar, 1957) shifted to the realist melodrama which dominated Telugu cinema in the 50s. The central characters are chairman Dharma Rao (Sastry) and a widow who has an affair with a chauffeur (the film’s most popular scenes). Other characters include Tikka Shankaraiah (Venkatramaiah) and a newspaper editor (Lingamurthy). The film reintroduced some popular Telugu folk songs, e.g. Nandamaya guruda nandamaya. 8 9 [[Film]]
