Chirutha (transl.Cheetah) is a 2007 Indian Telugu-language action drama film directed by Puri Jagannadh and produced by C. Aswani Dutt under Vyjayanthi Movies. The film stars debutants Ram Charan and Neha Sharma, alongside Prakash Raj, Ashish Vidyarthi, and Sayaji Shinde in supporting roles. Music for the film was composed by Mani Sharma, with cinematography by Shyam K. Naidu. The story follows Charan, a young man on a mission of vengeance against Mattu Bhai, a crime lord responsible for the deaths of his parents.

The film began production in early 2007 and was shot extensively in Thailand. Released worldwide on 27 September 2007, Chirutha received positive reviews from critics and was a commercial success. It set the record as the highest-grossing Telugu film for a debut actor until it was surpassed by Uppena in 2021.[1] Ram Charan's performance earned him the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut – South and a Nandi Special Jury Award.[2][3] The film was later remade in Bengali as Rangbaaz.[4]
