Main Hoon (Part-Time) Killer previously known as Main Hoon Rajinikanth is a 2015 Indian comedy spoof film in the Hindi language. The film is written and directed by Faisal Saif and produced by Mrs. Saroj under the banner of Varsha Production House. The film marks Bollywood début of South Indian actor Adithya Menon.

The film was initially supposed to release in the year 2014, but faced huge opposition and controversy when South-Indian actor Rajinikanth approached Madras High Court to stop the film's release based upon the use of his name in the film's title. Business of Cinema categorized the film as Top 10 banned films of Bollywood along with movies such as Bandit Queen, Black Friday, Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love and Kissa Kursi Ka.

After a long-running court battle, filmmaker Faisal Saif finally changed the title of the film falling under producer's pressure and it was released on 22 May 2015 across North India. However, in South India it was not released to avoid any further legal disputes.

The film tells the story of a funny and wicked C.B.I officer-cum-contract killer Rajinikanth played by (Adithya Menon) who goes in for a killing-spree undercover assignment from another stupid, funny and wicked millionaire Bachchan (Shakti Kapoor) to deliver 50 million (US$780,000) hard cash back to him which is captured by a corrupt cop Hariprasad Venkatesh Naidu (Shabbir Ali).

Things go awry when Hariprasad Venkatesh Naidu dies suddenly while making love to his beloved sex-worker Mallika (Kavita Radheshyam). Mallika who also happens to be a die hard fan of South Indian superstar Rajinikanth, sees a golden opportunity to grab the bag full of money and run away. Mallika waits for Train back to her village Bhanpur at Hanumangarh Railway Station where Rajinikanth comes in search for her with an intention to kill her and take back the money to where it belongs.
