Pendli Pilupu (transl. Wedding Invitation) is a 1961 Indian Telugu-language drama film, produced by Dinavahi Bhaskaranarayana and directed by A. V. Seshagiri Rao. It stars N. T. Rama Rao, Devika with music composed by K. Prasada Rao. Pendli Pilupu and Indrajeet released on the same day, both starring Rama Rao.^[1]

The film begins with Anasuyamma, a wise lady, who proceeds to Pushkara Snanam, a sacred bath, with her daughter Radha and deceased brother's children Raghu & Madhu. Madhu's culpability misplaces Radha, and he is ostracized. Radha is reared as Anuradha by the Siva Rao couple. Years roll by, and destiny makes Madhu & Anuradha colleagues and sweethearts. Tragically, Madhu's brother & sister-in-law lose life when Anasuyamma reembraces Madhu. Parallelly, a glimpse reveals that Ranganatham, Anasuyamma's advocate, deceived Simhachalam in his youth and sights him after a long assert about their progeny, Bala. Now Ranganatham ruses to forge Bala as Radha and earmarks his sidekick Bhagavanlu to mold her when they crush. Following, he successfully purports Bala as Radha when Anasuyamma seeks Madhu to knit her, which he denies. So, Anasuyamma hounds Siva Rao as he is loaned to her when Anuradha appeases to dispense with Madhu. Ergo, the nuptial of Madhu & Bala, is afoot when Ranganatham seizes Bhagavanlu for sensing his swindling and confronting him. Meanwhile, Nityanandam Madhu, mate and Anuradha's cousin, detects the actuality by viewing Radha's childhood photo and rushes to Anuradha. Parallelly, Bhagavanlu breaks out the ruse, and Nityanandam arrives with the fact. Finally, the movie ends with the marriage of Madhu & Anuradha/Radha.
