Nallavanukku Nallavan (transl. Goodman to the good) is a 1984 Indian Tamil-language action drama film, directed by S. P. Muthuraman and produced by AVM Productions.

Mahendran and Visu in supporting roles. The film revolves around a worker who is bequeathed his late boss's business, earning the wrath of the boss's son who believes he swindled his father's business. The screenplay was written by Visu, who made minor changes to differentiate it from the Telugu original, which co-producer M.
