Notes: The second half of 1951, Savitri booked for the films Pelletooru, Aadarsham, Priyuralu, Santhi and Sankranthi. She did a second heroine in 'Santhi', while Chandra Kumari was main heroine. Actually D.L. Narayana, the producer, planned to make 'Devadasu' initially wih Janaki as heroine. They even recorded the songs. But sudden death of Subbaraman, the music director, D.L. started 'Santhi', instead of 'Devadasu'. In mean time, Janaki was so busy with other films. On other hand, Savitri was impressed with her looks and performance in 'Santhi'. So D.L. and Vendantam decided to take Savitri as heroine in 'Devadasu'.
