Swargaseema is a 1945 Telugu-language drama film produced and directed by B. N. Reddi and starring V. Nagayya, B. Jayamma and Bhanumathi. The film marked the debut of Ghantasala as a playback singer and Marcus Bartley as a cinematographer.[1]
Released on June 6, 1945, Swargaseema celebrated a successful run of 200 days in theatres across Telugu-speaking regions as well as in present-day Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka. Bhanumathi's role marked a significant comeback in her career following a hiatus from acting after her marriage. Swargaseema was among the first Telugu films to be screened at an international film festival, held in Vietnam.[2]
