Sankaraabharanam

Viswanath gained national acclaim for this film, which triggered a sequence of other art movies in Telugu, including Thyagayya[?] (by Bapu), Meghasandesam[?] (by Dasari N. Rao), and Viswanath's own follow-ups to Sankaraabharanam: Saagara Sangamam, Sruthi Layalu, Swarna Kamalam[?], and Swathi Kiranam.

The movie is about a maestro of Carnatic music who dedicates his life to music. He becomes a victim of western on-slaught of Indian culture and tradition. However he succeeds in passing on the priceless tradition to a worthy inherent.
