Walter Vetrivel is a 1993 Indian Tamil-language action film written and directed by P. Vasu.

Walter Vetrivel was released on 14 January 1993 and became a commercial success, with a 200-day run in theatres.

The film was later remade in Telugu as S. P. Parasuram, in Hindi as Khuddar,[1] and in Kannada as Dalavayi.

But Walter's younger brother worries that Sumathi has seen him taking the photo while villains try to rape her.

Walter again chases the brother to the top of the building, where he holds a child hostage.

Seeing no other way to save the child, Walter, being the honest cop as he is, shoots his brother in the head.

[7] The title character was partly inspired by a real policeman named Walter Devaram.

[12] Malini Mannath of The Indian Express wrote, "Vasu's screenplay is etched to give maximum shock value [..] But the film is worth watching in the sense that despite flaws Vasu has managed to give a film that is different and gripping".

[3] K. Vijiyan of New Straits Times gave a positive review praising Vasu's direction and Sathyaraj's acting.

[4] C. R. K. of Kalki wrote that the sequences move at fast pace which makes viewers forget certain flaws.
