Nuvvu Naaku Nachav (transl.I like you) is a 2001 Indian Telugu-language romantic comedy film directed by K. Vijaya Bhaskar who co-wrote the script with Trivikram Srinivas. Produced by Sravanthi Ravi Kishore under the Sri Sravanthi Movies banner, the film stars Venkatesh and Aarthi Agarwal, marking Agarwal's debut in Telugu cinema. The music was composed by Koti. The film follows Venky, a graduate from Anakapalli, who moves to Hyderabad and develops feelings for Nandini, the daughter of his father's friend, despite her being engaged, leading to a complex interplay of love and familial bonds.

Released on 6 September 2001, the film received both critical and commercial success, becoming one of the highest-grossing Telugu films of its time. Over the years, it gained recognition for its storytelling and humour, attaining a cult status. The film also marked one of the breakout roles for Sunil, along with Nuvvu Nenu (2001), helping establish him as a leading comedian in the industry.

Nuvvu Naaku Nachav won five Nandi Awards, including Best Home-viewing Feature Film. It was remade in Tamil as Vaseegara (2003) and Kannada as Gowramma (2005).
