Meghasandesam is the story of a common man who has an innate urge for poetry. He leads a simple life, marrying a common villager, with children and respected in society. His life is normal until he finds a lady who is a Devadasi (a village dancer), and she inspires his creativity. As a truly inspired poet, he writes excellent poetry. But the other villagers mistake him as being attracted to the dancer.
After some family drama and sequences, his wife lives away from him (to fulfill his poetic thirst), and he settles down with the dancer.
The movie was a musical hit, and featured Ashtapadi hymns from Jayadeva.
The movie won four Indian National Film Awards.[2] It won a total of 27 awards, a record for the Telugu film industry.[1]
