Preminche Manasu is a 1999 Indian Telugu-language romantic psychological thriller film starring Vadde Naveen and Keerthi Reddy. The film is a remake of the 1998 Tamil-language film Priyamudan. It was not commercially successful.[1]
The songs are composed by S. A. Rajkumar.[2] The lyrics were written by Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry and Chandrabose. Rajkumar went on to reuse Evare Cheli Nuvvevare as Nathiye Nayil Nathiye in Vaanathaippola which also went on to be reused as Kadhile Andhala Nadhi in Maa Annaya.
The film released on 2 July 1999 with the tagline "Loving Heart".[3] Keerthi Reddy, who became popular with Tholi Prema, failed to garner further recognition from this film and Ravoyi Chandamama and subsequently went to work in Hindi films.
Griddhaluru Gopala Rao of Zamin Ryot gave the film a negative review. He noted that the first half is entertaining, but the film goes haywire in the second half. He praised the music, lyrics, picturisation in Jaipur but criticised the Telugu pronunciation of the singers, and certain plot points which he felt were unrealistic.[4]
