Sri Krishnadevaraya is a 1970 Indian
The film won three awards at the 1969–70 Karnataka State Film Awards - Best Actor (B. R. Panthulu), Best Actress (N. Bharathi) and Best Music Director (T. G. Lingappa). The movie saw a theatrical run of 28 weeks.[2]
When the State Government adjudged him the best actor for Thimmarasa's role, B.R. Panthulu modestly turned it down saying the award must go to Rajkumar for the electrifying lead role.[3] In a letter dated 23 September 1970, he cited that Rajkumar, who played Krishnadevaraya, was more eligible for the award.[4] After this incident, the Karnataka Government started two separate category of awards - one for the lead roles and another one for the supporting roles. The movie was dubbed in Telugu in 1971 as Sri Krishnadevarayalu.[5][6]
