This is a blog about the latest Telugu movies. Telugu films are still going strong after a century of domination in Indian cinema. The industry has a vast collection of stories spanning over many genres and styles that have been able to bring the Telugu language, culture and tradition to audiences across the globe. But all this may soon come to an end if old buildings, abandoned sets and trampled-upon heritage sites are not restored soon. Telangana, the new state that carved out of Andhra Pradesh on June 2, 2014, is trying to get back some of its lost glory. The government formed a cultural department last month. Telugu cinema got off to a slow start in the early years of the 20th century. "Gundamma Katha" was the first silent film made in 1925 while talkies were introduced in 1931 with ‘Alasundara Kavyam’. The language used was Telugu but the content was based on Sanskrit stories widely known as 'puranas'. Leading film makers like Tapi Dharma Rao and Gudavalli Ramabrahmam started making films inspired by folk stories. The early films mostly fell into two categories - historical fiction and mythologicals. The producers of these films borrowed themes from Mahabharatha, Ramayana, Shiva Kavacham, Bhagavatham, etc. It wasn’t until C. Pullaiah's 1925 silent film ‘Gundamma Katha’ that the first original narrative in Telugu was made. He went on to make more than 100 films in his career spanning close to five decades. 'Kshatriya Samrajyam' (1935) is widely regarded as the first all-talkie Telugu film. In the early 1940s, the film industries in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu were making about 50 movies a year on average. In 1947, India became independent from Britain. Telugu movies had a tinge of nationalism in their stories. The legendary writer Viswanadha Satyanarayana penned patriotic stories for the silver screen aimed at building a new nation. Sridevi became the first female superstar of Indian Cinema with her performance in 'Sri Valli', directed by K B Srikanth Nahatha. Sridevi, who died in 2018 at 54, starred in over 140 Telugu films before switching to Hindi cinema. In the 1970s the Telugu film industry saw a boost in female centric films with Shobhan Babu's 'Manushulu Chesina Dongalu' and Bapu's 'Tata Manavadu'. The trend was set and women took to the screen as powerful characters. In 1981, Muthyala Subbaiah produced a film based on a novel written by Nirmala Sheoran which became a landmark film in Telugu cinema. It went on to win four National Film Awards and three Nandi Awards including Best Feature Film. cfa1e77820
