Andhrawala (transl. Andhrite) is a 2004 Indian Telugu-language action film written and directed by Puri Jagannadh and starring N. T. Rama Rao Jr. playing a dual role,[2] while Rakshitha, Sayaji Shinde, and Rahul Dev play important roles. Music was composed by Chakri while cinematography was handled by Shyam K. Naidu. This film was simultaneously made in Kannada as Veera Kannadiga with Puneeth Rajkumar, directed by Meher Ramesh.
Andhrawala created much hype as N. T. Rama Rao Jr. was acting in this film just after the blockbuster Simhadri. However the movie was a disaster at the box office.[3][4]

The flop parade started with NTR's Andhrawala, which was released on January 1. So miserably did the film flop that he had to come out with Samba to compensate distributors.
