Plot

edit

Hyma (Jaya Prada) is a mute girl who is passionate about dancing. She is ill-treated by her stepmother (Rama Prabha), who wants to make her daughter Savithri (Kavitha) a film heroine. Sambayya (Chandra Mohan), an orphan, is in love with Hyma, and saves her from being cheated by her vile stepmother and her nephew, Badram (Devadas Kanakala).

Sambayya takes Hyma to the city after her father's (Satyanarayana) death, where he is afflicted by TB. Hyma earns money by dancing at a Kalakshetra. Sambayya wants her to marry the organizer Ram Babu, but Hyma's heart beats only for her loyal companion Sambayya. Savithri acts in a movie and is shunned by all, and Hyma takes care of them. All is forgiven. Sambayya and Hyma get married in the end.

Production

edit

Edida Nageswara Rao, who started as a junior artist and dubbing artist, ventured into filmmaking and, along with friends from Kakinada, successfully dubbed and released the Tamil film Venkateswara Kalyanam in Telugu, which inspired them to pursue making a direct Telugu film.[5] Leveraging his connection with K. Viswanath, Nageswara Rao approached him to direct a new project, resulting in Siri Siri Muvva (1976), where Nageswara Rao managed all production activities as the executive producer. The film was a success, earning profits for the group.[5][6]
