Palattu Koman is a 1962 Indian Malayalam-language swashbuckler film directed and produced by Kunchacko. Based on Komappan, a 1912 poem by Kundoor Narayana Menon, the film tells the story of Palattu Koman, a folk hero and skilled kalaripayattu warrior from the ballads of North Malabar. The film was produced by Udaya Studios through their company, Excel Productions. It stars Sathyan, Ragini, and Sree Ramani. The film's songs were composed by M. S. Baburaj.
The plot unfolds around a longstanding feud between two families: Konkiyamma's Kaippulli Pālāttu Tharavadu and Chandrappan's Thonnooram Veedu. The film was a box office success upon its release.
