War between Krishna and Arjuna) is a 1963 Indian Telugu-language Hindu mythological film, produced and directed by K. V. Reddy under the Jayanthi Pictures banner.

[2] The film begins at Dwaraka, where Narada walks on to Krishna and speaks about his sibling Subhadra 's nuptial.

On his back, Gandhara King Gaya acquaints Narada, who is proceeding to Brahma for a boon to be classic history.

At that point, Gaya wins the boon, flies in his aircraft, and inadvertently spits a betel leaf, which falls into Krishna's hands.

It infuriates Krishna, and he pledges to slay him when fear-struck Gaya hunts for cover, which is refused even by Brahma & Siva.

At last, Krishna pardoned Gaya, proclaiming that he had made the play to test Arjuna's skills for the upcoming Kurukshetra War.

Finally, the movie ends happily with Siva blessing Gaya: Whoever listens to his story Gayopakhyanam flourishes fearlessly irrespective of any danger.

The film was based on the popular Telugu play Gayopakhyanam written by Chilakamarti Lakshmi Narasimham in 1890.

However, he accepted the role due to his respect towards K. V. Reddy for having directed Donga Ramudu (1955), the maiden venture of his own production house Annapurna Pictures.
