Release Date: 29 Dec, 1950
Notes: Donepudi Krishna Murthy, well wisher of Savitri's family, recommended Savitri to Ranganath Das, the producer of 'Samsaram'. L.V. Prasad given her the female lead role, Kamala.
Savitri didn't forget the day 17 May, 1950 in her whole life. That day she acted infront of the camera, first time with make-up for 'Samsaram'. She feared to act with ANR, who was the favourite actor of younger generation of that time. She took many takes for many scenes in their combination. So the director and producer decided to replace her by Pushpavalli. Anyway Savitri did a small role as one of Pushpavalli's friends in the film. We can see her in 'Takkutamaaram bandi, tankeela bandi' song. And she said a dialogue 'nuvvu achcham hero Nageswara Rao laa unnave'.
