Pelli Pustakam (English Translation: Book of Marriage) is a 1991 Telugu, comedy drama romance film directed by Bapu with screenplay by Mullapudi Venkata Ramana; starring Rajendra Prasad, and Divyavani. The blockbuster film has received the state Nandi Award for Best Feature Film, and was premiered in Indian Panoram section at the International Film Festival of India.

Synopsis

Newly married couple K. Krishnamurthy (Rajendra Prasad) works as an art director in Mumbai and his wife Satyabhama (Divyavani) as a stenographer in Kerala for a low salary. To solve their financial problems they seek a job in a big company and pretend to be unmarried as their boss (Gummadi) would give job only to one member in a family. This has slight resemblance to the 1955 classic movie Missamma where couples pretend to be married but here it's the other way around.
