Devathalara Deevinchandi is a Telugu-language film directed by Kommineni Seshagiri Rao.[1] His debut film was hit and resulted in many successful films later.[2]
It is remake of Nagin, a highly successful 1976 Hindi film, which in turn was inspired by François Truffaut's film The Bride Wore Black, based on Cornell Woolrich's novel of the same name.[3]
The story revolves around five close friends: Mohan (Ranganath), Kubera Rao (Haribabu), Muralikrishna (Chandramohan), Giri (Eswara Rao) and Ravindra (Madala Rangarao). Kubera Rao knows about a hidden treasure in the Nallamala Forest. The friends go to the forest to find the treasure in a Naga Temple. They hurt a Nagadevatha during a ritual. Kubera Rao soon dies of a snake bite. Nagadevatha, who takes a human form as Phani (Jayamalini), takes revenge on the five friends.
