Khaleja (transl. Courage) is a 2010 Indian Telugu-language action comedy film written and directed by Trivikram Srinivas. The film stars Mahesh Babu, Anushka and Prakash Raj, while Shafi, Sunil, Sayaji Shinde, Amit Tiwari, Subbaraju, Tanikella Bharani, Brahmanandam and Ali play supporting roles. The plot follows Raju (Mahesh Babu), a cab driver who gets hailed as God in a remote village and ends up facing GK (Prakash Raj), a powerful industrialist, to save the village. The film deals with illegal-mining in India, and related environmental damage. It marks Babu's return as an actor after a three-year hiatus in his second collaboration with Trivikram after Athadu.

The film was released on 7 October 2010 to positive reviews from critics and audience alike but was declared a box office failure. Despite the debacle, the film won two Filmfare South awards for Best Male Playback Singer and Best Lyricist. Over the years the film has undergone re-evaluation and has achieved a cult following as it was deemed ahead of its time in terms of story telling and technicality. The film was listed in the Film Companion's "25 Greatest Telugu Films of the Decade."
