Paradesi (transl. Foreigner) is a 1998 Indian Telugu-language romantic drama film directed by K. Raghavendra Rao and produced by him under the banner Sri Raghavendra Movie Corporation, in collaboration with C. Aswini Dutt and Allu Aravind. The film is notable for its talent search campaign, which invited aspiring actors through Gemini TV and featured new faces Viswa, Madhav, Tanuja, and California-based model Monnette in the lead roles.

Primarily shot in the United States, the film features a soundtrack composed by M. M. Keeravani. Paradesi was released on 15 January 1998, coinciding with the Sankranti festival. However, despite the festive release, the film received only below-average openings and was a box office failure.
