What happens

Nuvve Kavali (transl. I want only you) is a 2000 Indian Telugu-language romance film directed by K. Vijaya Bhaskar and produced by Ramoji Rao under Ushakiran Movies. An official adaptation to the 1999 Malayalam film Niram, the film stars Tarun, Richa Pallod, Sai Kiran, and Varsha (the former three make their debuts in lead roles). Nuvve Kavali released on 13 October 2000 to widely positive reviews especially for its dialogues by Trivikram Srinivas, and the songs and background score by Koti. The film had an extremely successful theatrical run and went on to become the first Telugu film to collect a distributor's share of over ₹20 crore at the box office, emerging as an Industry Hit and the highest grossing Telugu film at the time of its release. To this day, the film holds the unique distinction of being the only modern day industry hit to have debutantes in its lead roles. Produced on a shoestring budget of ₹1.2 crore, and shot entirely in Ramoji Film City, Nuvve Kavali became a major sleeper hit and fetched the Best Telugu Feature Film award at the 48th National Film Awards. The film won four Filmfare Awards South, including Best Film – Telugu. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
