Joy of Life) is a 1988 Indian Telugu-language drama film, produced by D. Pratap Raju and directed by Relangi Narasimha Rao.

The film begins with an ideal wealthy couple, Sridhar & Kalyani, who have borne fruits for 12 years of martial life, but as childlessness, they perturb.

Akbar, their stanch servant, is reared by Kalyani, who showers him with a motherly attitude, and he, too, adores her vehemently.

Parallelly, as a glimpse, Akbar loves Noorjahan, whose father, a nominal Nawab Abdulla Ali Khan, denies it.

Years roll by, and an alliance of Latha fixes; fortuitously, Kalyani senses it and proceeds despite her terminally ill.

Kalyani arrives and performs it by sacrificing her diamond wedding chain Mangalasutram bestowed by Sridhar, a long ego.
