Pokiri (transl. Rogue) is a 2006 Indian Telugu-language action thriller film written and directed by Puri Jagannadh. The film was produced by Jagannadh and Manjula Ghattamaneni by their respective production companies Vaishno Academy and Indira Productions. The film stars Mahesh Babu and Ileana D'Cruz, Prakash Raj, Nassar, Ashish Vidyarthi and Sayaji Shinde appear in prominent roles. The plot revolves around a local goon whose killer instincts earn him not only his girlfriend's disapproval and a corrupt cop's enmity but also the attention of a wanted don. Made on a budget of around ₹12 crores, the film's principal photography commenced in November 2005 and lasted until April 2006. Most of the film was shot in and around Hyderabad and Chennai, except for a song which was shot at the province of Phuket in Thailand and the city of Bangkok. Shyam K. Naidu was the film's cinematographer, and it was edited by Marthand K. Venkatesh. The soundtrack and background score were composed by Mani Sharma. Pokiri was released on 28 April 2006, to positive critical feedback, and collected a distributor's share of ₹42 crores. The film grossed ₹66crores worldwide and remained the highest-grossing Telugu film for three years, until it was surpassed by Magadheera in 2009. The film was also one of the fourteen southern Indian films to be screened at the International Indian Film Academy Awards (IIFA) Film festival in 2006. The film won four Nandi Awards and two Filmfare Awards. The film's success catapulted D'Cruz into stardom and brought recognition to Jagannadh as a writer and director. It was remade in Tamil as Pokkiri (2007), in Hindi as Wanted (2009), and in Kannada as Porki (2010).
