Padamati Sandhya Ragam is a 1987 Telugu-language drama film written and directed by Jandhyala. The film features Vijayashanti as Sandhya, a young Indian woman, and Thomas Jane in his film debut as Chris, a White American man, who fall in love after Sandhya's family immigrates to the United States.

Production

Meer Abdulla came to the United States as an international student and aspired to be a filmmaker. He met Gummuluri Sastry, an engineer already living in the US and they started working together in theatre with Sastry directing the plays and Abdulla playing the lead role. As the leader of a Telugu association, Sastry had the opportunity to invite the crew of the Telugu films Sankarabharanam (1980) and Ananda Bhairavi (1983) to tour US.

Balasubrahmanyam also proposed that Sivamani play Ronald. Finding an actor for Chris' role proved difficult. Instead of using an established actor, a long campaign involving multiple talent agents was initiated. However, the initial actor chosen dropped out under uncertain circumstances, with Abdulla claiming that he had left after getting a last-minute offer from Hollywood in 2006 but then stating that he did not know the reason in 2010.

Principal Photography for the film commenced on 3 August 1986. The American portion was filmed first, with most of the scenes being shot in the residences and shops of Sastry's and Abdulla's friends and neighbours in the Washington metropolitan area. The song "Muddugare Yasoda" was shot in Missouri Botanical Garden, St. Louis, Missouri, and New Vrindaban temple, West Virginia.
