Vaddante Dabbu (transl. Endless Money)[1] is a 1954 Indian Telugu-language screwball comedy film directed by Y. R. Swamy. It was produced by Moola Narayana Swamy and presented by H. M. Reddy on Rohini Pictures banner. The film stars N. T. Rama Rao, Sowcar Janaki and Jamuna, with music composed by T. A. Kalyanam. It is based on the George Barr McCutcheon novel Brewster's Millions (1902). The film was simultaneously shot in Tamil as Panam Paduthum Padu (transl. Strains caused by money).[2] Despite originally opening to a mixed response, it attained cult status in Telugu cinema, and was remade in the same language as Babai Abbai (1985).
