It was the first Telugu film to win the National Film Award. The film proved K. V. Reddy's capability in directing not only fantasy and mythological films, but also social dramas. The film became a trendsetter for many later films with a similar theme. It showed that those who are considered Pedda Manushulu by the society are corrupt. After the film's release, the term Pedda Manushulu had negative connotations in Telugu culture for a long time. (en)
