When Savitri Got Furious With Bestie!

Maddali Suseela, best friend of legendary actress Savitri on friendship day shared the secrets of Savitri. She said both met for the first time in Vijayawada in a dance school. She said teacher asked her to teach Savitri the basics as she joined late.

Savitri used to stay in her uncle’s house at Mogalrajapuram and since Suseela used to stay in Satyanarayanapuram, the former asked the latter to come to her house and practice. Savitri used to get angry and leave furiously when some used to comment that white girl will be Radha and dark girl will be Krishna. She said Savitri used to hate people commenting on her dark complexion.

Suseela recollected that Savitri called her to come to her place in Madras and promised to introduce in films. She said even before she reached her house, Savitri called Chakrapani, Nagi Reddy. Though they offered her roles, Suseela didn’t do as she had to stay away from her husband and family.

Savitri didn’t speak to Suseela as she rejected film offer but later Savitri felt she took a right decision. She revealed that Savitri lamented, “You are happy with your family which is not the case with me. I got married though you cautioned and now my husband is not with me. I never wore the saree I like and never had the food I loved. Entire happiness and wealth deserted me.”
