Plot

Gulabi is an action packed love story set in the backdrop of girl-smuggling to Dubai. It is inspired from a real incident that came in news dailies when police arrested few Dubai based business-men trying to smuggle girls from Hyderabad. This is one of those films that carved a new trend of film making in Telugu cinema. Excellent songs by Sasi Preetam, breathe taking cinematography by Rasool, stunning direction, action packed narration and natural performances by the cast turned this film into a big success. Every college going student could relate himself to the characters in the film. Characterizations are so naturally etched.

Some segment of the audience identified that Gulabi had the touch of Ramgopal Varma, who is also the producer of the film. Krishnavamsi was depicted as a shadow under the guidance of Ramgopal Varma. Krishnavamsi proved his critics wrong with his future projects and got a brand name for himself.
