Veta (transl. Hunt) is a 1986 Indian Telugu-language period action film directed by A. Kondandarami Reddy. The film stars Chiranjeevi, Jayaprada, and Sumalatha in lead roles. Produced by Samyuktha Movies, it is an adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' novel The Count of Monte Cristo. The music was composed by K. Chakravarthy, with cinematography by V. S. R. Swamy.
The film brought together the successful team behind the 1983 blockbuster Khaidi, including Chiranjeevi, Samyuktha Movies, director Kodandarami Reddy, composer Chakravarthy, and writers Paruchuri brothers. However, Veta failed to replicate the success of its predecessor and was a commercial failure at the box office.
