Nanjundi Kalyana (transl. Nanjundi's marriage) is a 1989 Indian Kannada-language romantic comedy film, directed by M. S. Rajashekar, starring newcomers Raghavendra Rajkumar and Malashri, with Girija Lokesh and Sundar Krishna Urs as the lead cast. The film was an industry hit and was the highest ever grossing Kannada movie at that time. The movie saw a theatrical run of 90 weeks.
The story is based on Parvathavani's Kannada play Bahaddur Ganda which was a translation of William Shakespeare's comedy The Taming of the Shrew. The film was remade in Telugu in 1990 as Mahajananiki Maradalu Pilla. Upendra Kumar, who had composed the songs for this movie, was also the music director for the Telugu version and he retained all the six songs from this movie in the Telugu version.
