Pelli Chesi Choodu (transl. Try to conduct a marriage) is a 1952 Indian satirical comedy film directed by L. V. Prasad and produced by Nagi Reddi and Chakrapani under their company Vijaya Productions. The film was made simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil, the latter titled Kalyanam Panni Paar (transl. Try getting married). It stars N. T. Rama Rao, G. Varalakshmi, Yandamuri Joga Rao and Savitri. S. V. Ranga Rao, Sivarama Krishnayya, Doraswamy, and Suryakantham play supporting roles in the Telugu version while C. V. V. Panthulu replaced Krishnayya in Tamil.

Pelli Chesi Choodu deals with the negative effects of the dowry system in India through the marital life of Venkata Ramana (Rama Rao) and Ammadu (Varalakshmi). The film's production began after the release of Vijaya Productions' Pathala Bhairavi (1951). Marcus Bartley was recruited as the cinematographer and the film was edited by C. P. Jambulingam and M. S. Money. Ghantasala composed the film's music.

Pelli Chesi Choodu was released on 29 February 1952 while Kalyanam Panni Paar was released on 15 August that year. Both versions were commercially successful and achieved cult status. Moreover, Kalyanam Panni Paar was known to be the first South Indian film to contain sequences in Gevacolor. However, the Telugu version did not contain sequences in colour. Pelli Chesi Choodu was then remade in Kannada as Maduve Madi Nodu (1965) by Vijaya Productions and in Hindi as Shaadi Ke Baad (1972) by Prasad. While the Kannada version was commercially successful, the Hindi version was not.
