Immadi Pulikeshi () is a 1966 Kannada-language biographical film written by G. V. Iyer and directed by N. C. Rajan. The cast includes Rajkumar, Udayakumar, Jayanthi, Kalpana and Balakrishna. The film features a soundtrack and original score composed by G. K. Venkatesh and cinematography by B. Dorairaj and Rajaram.
The film is based on the life of the renowned Kannada ruler Pulakeshin II of the Chalukya dynasty, who played a key role in expanding the dynasty across much of the Deccan region. Immadi Pulikeshi was also the 100th film of actor Balakrishna. Music composer G. K. Venkatesh produced the film under the banner Sri Venkatesh Chitra. Rajkumar portrays the title role of Immadi Pulikeshi, while Udayakumar plays Kubja Vishnuvardhana, a hunchback, and K. S. Ashwath plays the role of Harshavardhana.
V. Vijayendra Prasad, father of director S. S. Rajamouli and the story writer of Baahubali: The Beginning, revealed that he was inspired by the hero introduction sequence of Immadi Pulikeshi and incorporated a similar sequence in Baahubali: The Beginning. He also mentioned that the central storyline, where a disabled brother is denied the throne, leading to conflict between relatives, was also partly inspired by this film.
