Kallarali Hoovagi (Kannada: ಕಲ್ಲರಳಿ ಹೂವಾಗಿ) is a 2006 Indian Kannada historical period drama romance film directed by T. S. Nagabharana, based on a novel of the same name written by B. L. Venu. Set in 1772, during the reign of Madakari Nayaka, the last ruler of Chitradurga, it features a fictitious love story between a Hindu Lingayat boy and a Muslim girl. The film stars Vijay Raghavendra, Umashankari, Anant Nag, Bharathi, Ambareesh, Avinash.

At the 54th National Film Awards, the film won Nargis Dutt Award for Best Feature Film on National Integration. It also won multiple awards at the 2006–07 Karnataka State Film Awards. Upon theatrical release on 22 December 2006, the film received widespread critical acclaim and also emerged as a box-office success.

It was reported that the plot of the 2015 Hindi film Bajrangi Bhaijaan bore resemblance to that of this movie as the core concept of both the movie is same - hero finding a dumb Muslim girl belonging to enemy nation, giving her shelter in his Hindu family, providing her with biryani in spite of him being vegetarian, facing opposition from a family member for his act, trying to send her back to her hometown and the girl regaining her lost voice in the climax.
