"Kittu," directed by B. Sathya and released in 2006 as traditionally animated Indian feature film, stands as a groundbreaking achievement in Indian cinema, particularly within the realm of animation. This film is noteworthy not only for its artistic and technical qualities but also for its cultural significance as the first animated feature film produced in the Telugu language. "Kittu" employs traditional hand-drawn animation techniques, a meticulous process involving the frame-by-frame drawing of characters and scenes. The animation team, under Sathya’s guidance, crafted characters that were not only visually appealing but also reflective of the cultural aesthetics of Telugu folklore and contemporary storytelling. In addition to receiving the National Film Award, it was named the second-best children's film of 2006 by the AP state award, or Nandi Award.
