Amma (transl. Mother) is a 1952 Indian Malayalam-language film directed by Jairus Paul Victor, written by Nagavally R. S. Kurup and produced by T. E. Vasudevan. The film is based on L. V. Prasad's Telugu movie Shavukar.

The film was a moderate success at the box office.[1] It was one of the two films that enjoyed success among the 11 Malayalam films which released in 1952, the other being the Prem Nazir-starrer Visappinte Vili.[2]

The film was also made in Tamil with the same title; Amma. Sandilyan wrote the dialogues.[3]
