Reviews

In spite of the interesting story line, impressive performances by Bhanumathi, Sivaji Ganesan and Veerappa, song and dance sequences by Rajasulochana and pleasing photography, Rani Lalithangi did not do well at the box office.

gollark: SPUDNET is not an esolang.

gollark: I'm busy on SPUDNET.

gollark: Hmm, if I implement 🐝s in Lua for CC/OC I could run their communications over APIONET!

gollark: They would be pseudobees, not real bees.

gollark: Hmm, yes, a fair concern. Maybe you would have to use built-in bees to perform some operations, to encourage inter-bee interaction?
