Devulapalli Krishnasastri

Sri Rama Pattabhishekam (Coronation of Lord Rama) is a 1978 Indian Telugu-language Hindu Epic film directed and produced by N. T. Rama Rao. King Dasharatha's queen Kaikeyi makes unusual demands to thwart the coronation of Lord Rama as king of Ayodhya. As a result, Lord Rama is forced to undergo several challenges.

During the days of the Vijayanagara Empire there was a system to bring willing women to the royal palace and render them official residents. This was called 'Rani Vasam'. According to this royal tradition, they sent palanquins to their houses, after they presented the family with gifts and jewelry. These Rani Vasam women should never have any contact with any man or let any man see them without permission. If any one violated the law, they were beheaded. Malleswari (Bhanumathi) was taken to this Rani Vasam. She was forced to accept this, for lure of money and jewelry by her parents. But she was already in love with her 'Bava' Nagaraju (N.T. Rama Rao), a sculptor. He stealthily got into the garden of the palace to meet his beloved and was caught. He was to get the death penalty. Krishnadevaraya for once pardoned the hero and allowed Malleswari to go with him.
