Kunguma Poovey Konjum Puraavey, becoming a hit — the song is popular even after half a century. However, there is a controversy about this song. It is said that the tune for this song was composed by T. G. Lingappa for the film Sabaash Meena. But for some reason Chandrababu refused to sing the song for that film. Later he gave this tune to S. M. Subbaiah Naidu and got it included in this film.
