Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari is a 2014 Indian Kannada romantic drama film written and directed by Santhosh Ananddram and produced by the duo Jayanna and Bhogendra under the banner Jayanna Combines. It stars Yash and Radhika Pandit in the lead roles. The supporting cast features Srinath, Achyuth Kumar and Malavika Avinash. The story revolves around two characters: a tearaway and hot-headed youngster, Ramachari, who is a diehard fan of Vishnuvardhan, and his love interest, the sophisticated Divya.

The film was announced in September 2013; filming commenced in April 2014 and ended in September 2014. It was shot primarily in Bangalore and Mysore, and significant portions were filmed in Chitradurga. The cinematography was done by Vaidy S. and was edited by K. M. Prakash. V. Harikrishna composed the film score and the soundtrack.[2]

The film was a commercial success, completing a 200-day theatrical run and emerged the highest grossing Kannada film of the year.[5] It was Yash's fifth consecutive success.[6] The film won multiple awards at the Filmfare Awards South and SIIMA Awards. The Tamil remake rights of the film was bought by Escape Artists Motion Pictures in 2015.[7] The film was remade in Marathi in 2016 as Mr. and Mrs. Sadachari [8] and in Odia in 2018 as Shakti thereby becoming the fifth Kannada film to be remade into two non-Hindi non-South Indian languages after Anuraga Aralithu, Appu, Mungaru Male and Milana.[9]
