Most importantly the film captures the essential teachings propounded by Baba, like practising shraddha (faith) saburi (patience/compassion), and sab ka malik ek hai, emphasising that God is one and above caste, creed and religion.
His disappearance from Shirdi and later reappearance, how he made Shirdi his home, and how the village folk were attracted to him and his miracles are all part of the Sai Baba narrative that the film plays out. The film tells the familiar story of Sai Baba's life, the early years being shrouded in mystery, his appearance in Shirdi at a young age and his being considered as an avatar of Lord Dattatreya. His latest release Shirdi Sai has his regular team of Akkineni Nagarjuna in the lead role as the guru from Shirdi, M M Keeravani as the music director and S Gopal Reddy as the cinematographer. K Raghavendra Rao carved a niche for himself in devotional films with Annamayya and Sriramadasu. Anyone can see it for the relevance of the simple teachings of the saint, writes Radhika Rajamani Telugu film Shirdi Sai is not just a devotional to be seen by an older audience.
