Puppy) is a 2009 Indian Tamil-language drama film written and directed by Sathaji and produced by V. A. Durai.

The film stars newcomer Selvin and Nicole, with Soori, Sippy, and Jayakumaran playing supporting roles.

Malli (Nicole) sells flowers in a temple near the slum, and she is in love with Naai Kutty, while her friend Ammu (Sippy) treats him like her brother.

Impressed by his strength, Reddy (Jayakumaran), the kingpin of the flesh trade, hires Naai Kutty as his henchman.

A vengeful Reddy hatches a conspiracy against Naai Kutty, and he convinces Maari to leave Malli to him.

Director Ram Siva, regarding his complaint said, "The story of Naai Kutty has been stolen from the Kannada film Nanda Loves Nanditha which was a smash hit in Karnataka.

Director S. S. Joe had withdrawn from the project and had left Chennai, to avoid facing the legal problems which would possibly come in the future.

It tries to cash in on the slum life and its brutal ways but ends up as too pretentious" and called the film "a waste of time".
