Kowrava is a 1998 Indian Kannada-language romantic drama film directed by S. Mahendar.

The film marked the acting debut of Patil as lead actor after playing negative roles and suffered losses as producer.

[3][4] Mahendar insisted he become a lead actor by producing the film.

Maheshwara Reddy of The Indian Express wrote "This is a remake of a Tamil film ‘Kadalora Kavithaigal’ but it's a fine example of how a good film can be made when the director handles the story simply.

BC Patil, who is also producer of the film, steals the show with his performance in the lead role".
