'STETHOSCOPE' by Chiliveri Kishore

While writing a story about a school boy travelling in the school bus everyday to study in a convent school in town, I aimed to make the film with support and help from the various individuals, professionals, so that right through the making there will be
an awareness about the film. I see my present short film STETHOSCOPE - oka chinni gunde chappudu’ (duration:approximately 40minutes) as a genuine attempt to revive interest in children’s cinema, which, day by day is fading out due to the bombardment of meaningless formulae films in AP, India.


For the making of 'STETHOCOPE'-oka chinni gunde chappudu..

At present, iam directing this short film in Telugu for which we are respectfully seeking sponsorship in order to complete the project.

Synopsis: The film revolves around an eight year old village school boy who goes in a school-bus everyday from his village and how he saves the life of his class teacher in an unexpected manner is told with a good climax.

We believe that this kind of films truly make sense in order to instil values in children while they are still young. It is also aimed at teachers for a better understanding of their pupils as they play major role in shaping up the future of any school going child. It entertains one and all as well.
The film’s budget is just Rs.3,00000/-( Rupees three lakhs only)

To complete the mission we are in need of minimum sevety five thousand rupees..(Rs. 75,000/-)

If anyone interested can contribute from Rs. 5000/- onwards.. and for that..


  • The sponsor/contributor’s name will be given credit in film titles in the order as per their amount of contribution.
  • Our film will be sent to participate in all the major children’s film festivals in India and around the world with English subtitles.
  • The film will be screened in schools and a DVD copy will be submitted to selected school libraries, thus inspiring younger children for quite a long time.
  • The film will be telecasted finally in any one of the TV channels and also in city-cable channels in district level.

    Our Aim: Our film is a genuine attempt to come out with a good children’s film which realistically portrays the human relationships and their effects on children’s mind.
    It portrays the life in Telangana rural region. Most of the actors and almost all locations from Karimnagar district in AP. The idea is to present to the world a sensible children’s film from this region!

    The Press Coverage

    The first official announcement of the film ' Stethoscope' was done through AndhraJyothi-telugu daily in Karimnagar district.It was on 15th January 2008. By then the first drapt of the script was ready and the title of the film was finalised as 'Stethoscope'. I was looking for a lyric writer who can write something very close to the heartbeat of village children's feelings. Luckily I met Jaagilam Rameshgaru through one of my assistant. Ramesh and i met several times and i narrated the story to him. He slowly started to write something upon which we used to discuss again. Apart from him i also tried 2 other lyric writers from nearby villages. One of them was quite original and close to the children's world but another was quite methodical and too filmi. Finally i decided upon Jaagilam Ramesh and paid him the advance. It took nearly three months for him to come up with the final lyrics upon which i agreed. The song starts with the line.."okadaanivainaa..evarulekunnaa..."
