7. Colour Photo (2020)
One of the best love stories to come out of Telugu cinema in recent years, Colour Photo was released directly on the OTT platform Aha. It was entirely shot in a rural setting. It covers Andhra Pradesh in the late 1990s and follows a below-average man and his love tale. Suhas and Chandini Chowdary play the key roles. Although Romeo & Juliet appears to have influenced the film, the plot is entirely original and has never been told before.

- Ratings- 8.2/10
8. Bhanumathi Ramakrishna (2020)
In one of Hyderabad’s posh offices, a wealthy urban girl meets a middle-class small-town resident. What’s novel about that, though? The creators chose to present the story from the girl’s perspective as she searches for love in her early 30s rather than creating another “opposites attract” rom-com. This mature, insightful, and quiet romance stands out for the way it rarely makes an effort to impress its audience.

- Cast- Naveen Chandra, Salony Luthra, Raja Chembolu, Harsha Chemudu
- Ratings- 7/10
