Thanks Balajigade, the quality is reasonably good.

SF,

Thanks for this evergreen song. Even those of us who know very few Telugu songs, clearly remember hearing this song on radios.

Yes this was a popular song remembered even these days. The credit goes to SV Ranga Rao for the acting part.

Here is very melodious and well written song, sung by AM Raja in the raga Des. Such lyrics are a rare commodity these days.
