After the film Mahanati, a biopic on legendary actress Savitri, became a blockbuster, there was yet another tribute to Savitri organised in the city in the form of art work. Titled 'The Mahanati Retrospective', the spectacular art show featured true-to-life illustrations of the actress through her dramatic journey. The illustrations were created by students of the BFA college in Animation and Art programs, in what is seen as a heartfelt tribute to the legendary actress. Pic: Sirige Srikanth
