Bloody Beggar is a 2024 Indian Tamil-language black comedy drama film directed by debutant Sivabalan Muthukumar and produced by Nelson Dilipkumar under Filament Pictures, in their maiden production venture. The film stars Kavin in the lead role, alongside Radha Ravi, Redin Kingsley, Padam Venu Kumar, Prudhvi Raj, Saleema, Priyadharshini Rajkumar, Sunil Sukhada and T. M. Karthik.

Prior to the film's official announcement, it was referred to as Kavin 06, as is the actor's sixth venture as the lead actor. The film was officially announced in May 2024, in addition to the official title. Principal photography commenced in December 2023 and occurred predominantly in Chennai, and wrapped by March 2024. The film has music composed by Jen Martin, cinematography handled by Sujith Sarang and editing by R. Nirmal.

Bloody Beggar released worldwide on 31 October 2024 in theatres, coinciding with Diwali, to mixed reviews from critics and audiences, who praised its visuals, narration, soundtrack and cast performances (especially Kavin) but the pacing, writing, and black comedy received polarizing response. It became a huge disaster at box office making Nelson to compensate the loss to the distributors of this flim. Some noted similarities between the film and Ready or Not.
