#3 Jalsa

Striking gold at the box office, Jalsa marked the first collaboration between Trivikram and Pawan Kalyan and style. They would later join hands for Attarintiki Daredi to emerge as one of the most popular actor-director duos in recent times. Devi Sri Prasad’s music, Brahmanandam’s comedy, and Pawan Kalyan’s performance, coupled with Trivikram’s terrific screenwriting, make sure Jalsa never has a dull moment. Released in 2008, the film still holds us captive when telecast on TV.

Khaleja recently marked its 10th year of release, giving us yet another reason to swoon over Trivikram’s magic.
