Savitri’s father died when she was only six months old. She was brought up at her uncle and aunt’s place along with her mother and siblings. More than studies, she participated in several dance and talent competitions as a young child.
She was only 12-years-old when she moved to Madras in order to seek acting opportunities. Contrary to most superstars, she couldn’t find work that easily. Almost close to giving up, it was in 1950 she was cast in Samsaram. Initially a lead role, she was then given a minor speaking role.
After starring in minor roles in Roopavati and Patala Bhairavi, Savitri got her big break in the Telugu film Pelli Chesi Choodu in 1952. The film had her essay a strong role centred around the issue of the dowry system in India. The film was also remade twice, as Maduve Madi Nodu (1965) in Kannada and Shaadi Ke Baad(1972).
While she was mostly known for her Telugu and Tamil films, having starred with stalwarts of that era, Savitri did five Hindi films namely Bahut Din Huye, Ghar Basake Dekho, Apne Huye Paraye, Balaram Shri Krishna and Ganga Ki Lahren.
Savitri’s only Malayalam film was Chuzhithat released in 1973. She played an intense role in the film, where she plays an alcoholic mother who, in a drunken stupor, sleeps with her daughter’s beau and gets pregnant. More than her performance, it was MS Baburaj’s music that won praises.
