Nuvve Kavali (transl. I Need Only You) is a 2000 Indian Telugu-language romance film directed by K. Vijaya Bhaskar and produced by Ramoji Rao under Ushakiran Movies. A remake of the 1999 Malayalam film Niram, the film stars Tarun, Richa Pallod, Sai Kiran, and Varsha (the former three make their debuts in lead roles).[3][4].

Nuvve Kavali released on 13 October 2000 to widely positive reviews especially for its dialogues by Trivikram Srinivas, and the songs and background score by Koti. The film had a theatrical run of 365 days in 6 centres,[citation needed] grossing over 20 crore at the box office.[2][5][6]

Produced on a shoestring budget of 1.2 crore,[2] shot entirely in Ramoji Film City, Nuvve Kavali became a hit at the time, and garnered the Best Telugu Feature Film award at the 48th National Film Awards.[7][3] The film won four Filmfare Awards South, including Best Film – Telugu.[8]
