Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum

Praise Krishna, the Guru of the Universe) is a 2012 Indian Telugu-language action drama film directed by Krish and jointly produced by Saibabu Jagarlamudi and Rajeev Reddy on First Frame Entertainment.

It has received universal acclaim for combining the art form of Surabhi and an action flick based on illegal mining in Bellary.

Though very gifted in his craft, Babu resents the art due to his poor earnings from it and makes plans to leave for a better lifestyle in USA.

Shortly after their arrival, one of the troupe’s artists engages in an altercation with Saida, a local goon, who retaliates by severing the former’s tongue and urinating in Subrahmanyam’s ashes.

After tending to their injuries, the tribal people share that they migrated there after Reddappa mercilessly forced them out of their native forest and burned it to excavate the land.

Devika firmly determines to seek justice for Reddappa’s crimes, while Babu insists on not interfering, leading to an altercation that separates them.

Babu emotionally returns to Surabhi and decides to perform Subrahmanyam's last authored play, Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum, with the troupe.

Chakravarthy deceptively offers the real Reddappa in his place to Babu, but Jogamma and Devika arrive just in time to reveal the truth.

Others who graced the event include Venkatesh, S. S. Rajamouli, Dil Raju, D. Ramanaidu, Sirivennela Sitaramasastri, Mani Sharma, and Kota Srinivasa Rao.
