Appu Chesi Pappu Koodu is a comedy entertainer which fared well commercially as well. Great performances, comedy and fun elements made it a memorable film in Tollywood.

Story Details:
Rao Bahadur Ramadasu (CSR) is a clever man who knows the art of taking debts and not repaying them. Bhajagovindam (Relangi) works under him and wants to get this wrongdoings of his boss out to the World. Bhajagovindam loves his brother in law Ramalingam (Ramanareddy)’s daughter Usha (Girija). But her father plans to get her married to someone else by looking out for matches. Bhajagovindam designs some scheme or other and breaks all those prospective matches. Ramadasu works as a clerk under the Zamindar of the town (SVR). This Zamindar has a fondness for spiritual people and sannyasis. He has only one descendant- his granddaughter Manjari (Savitri). Knowing this, Ramadasu plans to get his son Raghu (Jaggayya) who is studying abroad  to get married to Manjari – thereby getting hold of Zamindar’s property. But by that time itself Raghu loves Leela (Jamuna) and even gets married to her. Ramadasu gets furious to know and doesn’t even allow Leela enter his house. Leela doesn’t have anybody in the family to support except a brother Raja (Sr.NTR) who is in jail fighting for Freedom Movement. Manjari and Raja are friends since college and they even love each other. Manjari rescues Leela as Raja is in jail. Ramadasu plans to get rid of Leela and get Manjari in marriage to Raghu somehow. He even calls his son to India. By then Raja gets released from jail and requests Ramadasu to accept his sister as their daughter in law. Ramadasu sends goons to fight on Raja but Raja succeeds in it. Helpless, Ramadasu allows Leela into his house but harasses her saying she should do all the chores and live like a person without voice. Raghu comes from Paris and when the marriage plan is done by Ramadasu to get hold of the zamindar’s property, Bhajagovindam enters the scene. He makes Raja act as a young leader and occupies a place in Zamindar’s bunglow. Finally Ramaingam’s drama comes out and  Raghu – Leela live happily ever after. Raja marries Manjari and Bhajagovindam marries Usha.

Performances:
CSR is excellent in the role of Rao Bahadur Ramadasu. His peculiar dialogue delivery works well for this character. Relangi excels as Bhajagovindam and plays an important role. Sr.NTR is brilliant as the hero and so is Savitri as the heroine. Jamuna is adorable as Leela and SVR gives another great performance. Ramana Reddy is fantastic as usual.

Technical Aspects:
This is the last film which has L.V. Prasad in the directional department. His real life wittiness and comedy sense were greatly used in the film. Songs by S.Rajeshwara Rao is another highlight for the film. Dialogues by Vempati Sadasiva Brahmam are good.
