Kalloori (English: College) is a Tamil language coming-of-age film film by director Balaji Shakthivel. The movie was produced by S. Shankar's banner S Pictures and the story was based on the college campus featuring Tamannaah and debutant, Akhil. Audio was released under Shankar's own audio company S Musics; music was scored by Joshua Sridhar and lyrics were written by Na. Muthukumar. The film was dubbed in Telugu language as Kalasala. The film received positive reviews and became a commercial success.

The film begins with group of students clearing weeds near a roadside tree. The scene flashes back a few years earlier in a bus with a lot of college students heading towards Government Arts College in a small town. A set — Muthuchelvan, Ramesh, Kayalvizhi, Adhilakshmi, Nagarani, Albert, Kaamatchinathan, Salima, Iyanar — are introduced as friends since high school. There is a small build up to the introduction of the hero (Muthu played by newcomer Akil), who is part and parcel of the circle,a well talented athlete; Ramesh- a big flirt and movie buff; Kayalvizhi- a strong willed and courageous woman who hates the ideas of falling in love within friends; Adhilakshmi- a food lover; Nagarani- a Telugu speaking girl who gets fits when she got frightened up;Albert- a Christian, always get abused by his drunkard father; Kaamatchinathan- a rich,yet timid person who even gets very shy to introduce himself to his classmates at the first day of college; Salima- A Muslim girl and very intelligent in both studies and talented in dance and Iyanar- a quirky guy. All are studying in the same class. They enter into the college for the first time.

In the classroom they see a beautiful girl Shobhana (played by Tamannaah), who is strikingly different. She looks depressed and sad and aloof. The friends are puzzled by her in the beginning and later they learn she lost her mom recently in an accident. The group sympathizes for her and brings her into its fold. Shobhana soon becomes a member of their group and ditches her plans to pursue her course in Delhi. She simply does it to be with these friends during college.
