No evidence of substantial references to this topic in reliable sources. Dweller (talk) 14:53, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep – Reportedly won a state government award for best film. Apparently, the internet doesn't cover most South Indian films of the pre-90s era. However, I'm sure there would be some Telugu-language sources. &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 16:58, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
 * There's no article on the topic in another language, so it's hard to check and there's no references to make the claim verifiable. Happy to call for speedy close to this if you find any. --Dweller (talk) 20:01, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Not sure about the credibility of this source, yet it looks like WP:NEWSBLOG. &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 21:00, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep per it receiving a very notable state award, and in a sad recognition that a pre-internet Indian film will be near impossible to source online.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 01:05, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
 * It needn't be sourced online. Online, offline, it just has to be sourced, by Wikipedia policy. --Dweller (talk) 08:55, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
 * And it is ... and anyone who is so inclined is welcome to visit libraries in Andhra Pradesh to see if some 1981 pre-internet newspaper or magazines have hard-copies which have survived and are archived. Luckily guideline also recognizes that we may accept a realistic expectation that a verifiable film topic from one of India's more prolific filmmakers, likely received coverage... even if not in our hands at this exact moment.
