change'
PhD
to Pallaki to Pallakilo Pellikoothuru

worked for Paradesi film which was directed by K Raghavendra

producer. At that time, she titled her script as PhD

produce this film. But due to certain problems, the
film did not take off. Then K Raghavendra Rao asked
her to explain about her storyline. She liked it and
they started the project. Later on, Suchitra felt

for a poetic title like 'Pallaki'. But, it was K Raghavendra
Rao who came up with the complete title of 'Pallakilo
Pellikoothuru'.
