Palasa 1978

The premise had an immense potential. But, some choices made by the creative team while writing sub-plots fail to create an engaging screenplay. The raw and rustic feel of the movie also takes a hit by the amateur act of the cast. Also, Director suddenly comes out of his way when he wrote some characters like the police officer who appears in the later half (you suddenly feel you're watching a regular movie). This very uneven narration would take you away. These genre movies need to be very engaging and very carefully written to give a long lasting experience.

But, this seems to be written by a team who have different schools of thinking.

Can you watch it? Of course, yes. It's not a bad movie in any form. It's just an in-between treat (neither raw nor regular)

Hats off to the director for having the guts to depict casteism in India, until now none of the Telugu director's had this courage . All the cast and crew did a terrific job . It's a must watch for all the lower caste people to know how ur Ancestors have suffered It's a must watch for all the upper caste people to know how ur ancestors were the cause of suffering..

Movie walks you through the rural lives of past and present India. Well written screenplay keeps you engaged for 2.5 hours. Dialogues seems simple yet they are thought provoking. One should watch this movie to know the ground reality of social structure, how the powerful exploits the powerless.

Dialogs are excellent with nativity , performances by everyone are top notch Songs and bgm 👍

One of the best recent movies I watched in Telugu. I would encourage every one to see this movie and boost these directors for similar kind of stories. Showed how casteism was so real and abused in past. Hopefully people realise the difference now and then , it's gone most part of it.
