What happens

Ave Kallu (transl. The same eyes) is a 1967 Indian Telugu-language crime mystery film directed by A. C. Trilokchandar and produced by AVM Productions. The film features Krishna and Kanchana in the lead roles, with supporting performances from Rajanala, Gummadi, Padmanabham, Ramana Reddy, Nagabhushanam, and Geethanjali. The plot revolves around a series of mysterious murders in a girl's family, with her lover attempting to identify the killer after only being able to see the murderer's eyes. The film was made simultaneously in Tamil as Athey Kangal, with Kanchana reprising her role in both versions. Ave Kallu was released on 14 December 1967. Though the film did not achieve major success during its initial release, it gained recognition and earned more revenue in subsequent runs. Ave Kallu is notable for being the first Telugu crime film to be entirely made in colour. Additionally, the song "Maa Oollo Oka Paduchundhi" became popular and remains a well-known classic.
