Azad (transl. Independent) is a 2000 Indian Telugu-language patriotic action film written and directed by Thirupathisamy, and produced by C. Ashwini Dutt under Vyjayanthi Movies. It stars Nagarjuna Akkineni in the titular role alongside Shilpa Shetty and Soundarya, while the music was composed by Mani Sharma. The film completed a 100-day run in 4 centres and was a commercial success. The film won four Nandi Awards and was remade in Kannada as Bhagath (2004) and loosely remade in Tamil as Velayudham (2011). Besides a Tamil remake, the film was dubbed into Tamil as Kurukshetram.
