From the day the trailer of Balagam came out, there was something special about this film which caught the imagination of many. The village drama helmed by Venu Yeldandi has not only impressed the critics but also made decent box office numbers. Now, the icing on the cake is that the film has won four awards at the Washington DC International Cinema Festival.

The Priyadarshi starrer won the awards for Best Feature Director, Best Actor in a Feature, Best Actress in a Feature and Best Narrative Feature. This is something special as the makers did not even imagine such an honor. This film was based in Telangana and the makers were of the opinion that it would do well in the Nizam region. But the film has struck a chord with everyone.

One of the major pillars of the film is Dil Raju, who presented the film. His nephew and daughter Anshita produced Balagam on a really low budget. Director Venu Yeldandi is being lauded for his honest narration in the film which is based on how things change when an elderly person in the family passes away. Balagam also had a great message for all which is unity in diversity.

Priyadarshi and Kavya Kalyanram played the main leads in this film which had all local Telangana artists. Bheems composed the music and the film had a great climax with heart wrenching emotions. It is good that the film has started to get international acclaim and we need to see where the film goes from here on.
