+Reformist Chiranjeevi movie addressing caste
+in a calculated effort to achieve greater critical
+respectability for the star (cf. Swayamkrushi,
+1987; Apathbandhavudu, 1992). The
+Brahmin Suryam (Chiranjeevi) is trained in
+music by his father, the reputed Carnatic
+musician Ganapathi Sastry (Ganesh). However,
+the father believes that music constitutes an
+end in itself, while the son is committed to
+uplifting the masses. Suryam falls for the Dalit
+woman Lalitha (Shobhana), but his father’s
+disapproval forces him to leave home. Suryam
+becomes a political figure leading campaigns
+advocating prohibition and starts local
+cooperative movements. The father is betrayed
+by his new disciple, who demands to learn a
+rare raga as a dowry for marrying his daughter.
+The end has the Prime Minister of the country
+publicly congratulating Suryam for his actions
+while the father recants and publicly
+acknowledges that his son’s ideals were the
+better ones. The film was awarded the ‘Nargis
+Dutt National Integration’ award from the
+national film jury.
