Missamma

Fell in love with this savitri garu after watching this movie.

We rarely get to see such clean comedy. The Actors bahave like characters and not like the actors themselves, which is widespread in Telugu cinema today.

It is a benchmark for comedy.

So you have a young NTR and Savitri. You have the absolutely talented Ramana Reddy. You have a delightful Relangi. And the surprise package, ANR. He was perfect as a detective who can't sing (you must hear that song).

The main theme is love and feminine jealousy. Padded with enough humor, religion, song and dance. Jamana is the kiddish girl and a good dancer.

All leading to a climax that balances everything out.

Watch the movie for Savitri.

Comedy at its best. This movie has a masterful cast at their best. I have seen this movie more than 50 times and would never pass a chance to see it again. Missamma is a well written, well acted and well made masterpiece that has to be subtitled and shown to an international audience.

This is one of the greatest movies ever seen. Actress Savitri with her excellent portrayal of Nava Rasa, is simply one of the greatest actresses of all time. Without a single romantic (in current day context) or indecent/ obscene visualisation, all the subtle feelings of Human Sensitivities of Traditional Indian Ladies are picturised by the director. Also , worth mentioning is the fact that the lady was only 18 years old. That is what earned her the Title Maha Nati in the ensuing years. The maturity in acting so naturally by a teenage girl is really marvellous.

NT Rama Rao, His indomitable nuances and style have his stamp of authentic life in a actor. Comedy is the essence of the movie.
