Wiki.

Sati Savitri is a 1933 Indian Telugu language mythological film directed by C. Pullayya. Based on a popular stage play by Mylavaram Bala Bharathi Samajam, the film was a cinematic adaptation of the Mahabharata's Aranya Parva, focusing on the legendary story of Savitri and Satyavan. It starred stage actors Vemuri Gaggayya as Yama and Dasari Ramathilakam as Savitri.

Produced in Calcutta on a lavish budget of ₹75,000, Sati Savitri was the first film by East India Film Company. The film's release coincided with another adaptation of the same name directed by H. M. Reddy in Bombay, though Pullayya's version emerged as the commercial success. Gaggayya’s portrayal of Yama received widespread acclaim and established him as a major star. The film became a hit, earning recognition both locally and internationally, including an honorary diploma at the 2nd Venice International Film Festival.
