Pathala Bhairavi is a Telugu film released in 1951 and starring NTR,SVR, Malathi,Relangi and "Mahanati" Savitri in guest appearance. The plot follows how one poor gardener wins his lady love (who is a princess by the way) amidst the obstacles set by a wicked magician.

Though this is a film of 1950s, it is highly entertaining as well as engaging in its storyline. The performances of every cast member is excellent, especially SVR, who blows your mind as the wicked magician. Production values are adequate as per the limitations of Indian cinema at that time.

Story & screenplay : Very good Dialogues : Match the period setting Music : Sequences shot well but can feel stretched (IMO) Cinematography: Excellent Cast: Supremely good Direction: Loved it

This is one of the earlier films of NTR, better know as Nata Sarvabhowma.

Do watch it for the sheer performances and engaging storyline.
