Wiki.

Lava Kusa is a 1934 Telugu-language Hindu mythological film directed by C. Pullayya and produced by Motilal Chamaria under the East India Film Company. The film is based on the play Lava Kusa, written by K. Subrahmanya Sastry, and marks an important milestone in early Telugu cinema. It was one of the first Telugu films to feature recorded songs, following the trend set by Sati Savitri (1933). All the songs in Lava Kusa were well received, contributing to its success.

The film narrates the Ramayana story of Seeta, who, after retiring to the forest, gives birth to twin sons, Lava and Kusa. Unaware that Rama is their father, the twins later confront him. The film was a major hit and ran in some theatres for over a year. It marked the acting debut of singer Sriranjani. It was also one of the first Telugu films to have a wide release in rural areas of Andhra Pradesh.

C. Pullayya, in collaboration with his son C. S. Rao, remade Lava Kusa in 1963, featuring N. T. Rama Rao and Anjali Devi in the lead roles.
