Kunwara Baap (lit. 'The Bachelor Father') is a 1974 Hindi film produced by Amarlal Chabria. Based on Charlie Chaplin's The Kid (1921) it is a film with a serious message about polio vaccination. Mehmood directed the film and stars in a main role along with Bharathi, Vinod Mehra, Tamil actress Manorama and Mehmood's son Macky Ali in other lead roles.

Mehmood made the film to raise awareness about polio, which had affected his own son, Macky Ali aka Maqdoom Ali. The Sports Day, a major scene in the movie, was shot in Bangalore's Bishop Cotton Boys' School where the boy studied. Mehmood's comedy scenes in the film earned him a Filmfare nomination for best actor in a comic role, the only nomination for the film.

Kunwara Baap was the debut film for famed music composer Rajesh Roshan. The hijra song "Saj Rahi Gali" sung by Mohammed Rafi had topped the annual Binaca Geet Mala, the only countdown show at the time.
