What happens
Chinnari Papalu (transl. Very Young Babies) is a 1968 Indian Telugu-language drama film produced and written by Veeramachaneni Sarojini, and directed by Savitri. The film stars Jaggayya, Sowcar Janaki and Jamuna. It revolves around a rich man falling in love with a tribal girl, and how the pair face challenges in life when they separate. Chinnari Papalu was the inaugural production of Sri Mata Pictures, and Savitri's directorial debut. Its crew consisted largely of women: director Savitri, producer-writer Sarojini, music director P. Leela, art director Mohana and dance choreographer Rajasulochana, but cinematographers Singh and Sekhar, and editor M. S. N. Murthy were exceptions. Chinnari Papalu was released on 21 June 1968 and despite failing commercially, received critical acclaim and won the Nandi Award for Second Best Feature Film - Silver produced by Matha Pictures. It was remade by Savitri in Tamil as Kuzhandai Ullam (1969). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
