Naadi Aada Janme (transl. I am also a woman) is a 1965 Indian Telugu-language drama film directed by A. C. Trilokchandar and produced by S. V. Ranga Rao. The film stars N. T. Rama Rao and Savitri in lead roles, with music composed by R. Sudarsanam. The film centres on a dark-complexioned, uneducated woman who proves to everyone that character is more important than appearance and education for a woman.
The film is a remake of the 1963 Tamil film Naanum Oru Penn, which in turn was an adaptation on the Bengali play Bodhu by Sri Shailash Dey. Both versions were directed by Trilokchandar, with S. V. Ranga Rao reprising his role in the Telugu adaptation. Naadi Aada Janme was a commercial success and went on to run for 100 days in 14 centres.
