Oram Po (Tamil: ஓரம் போ; English: Move Aside), previously titled Auto, is a 2007 Tamil comedy film starring Arya and Pooja. The film, directed by the debutant husband-wife duo, Pushkar-Gayatri, was produced by V. Palanivel and A.C. Anandan for A.P. Film Garden. G. V. Prakash Kumar was the music director.

The film, revolving around auto rickshaw racing, was released after almost a year of production. Later in 2011 was dubbed in Telugu as Nenu Autovani.

Chandru (Arya) and Bigilu (Lal) are close friends. Chandru is an expert auto driver & racer while Bigilu is a mechanic expert at customizing autos to run at the dream speed of 130 km/h. Son of Gun (John Vijay) is the chief of a rival group who wants to outsmart the duo. Chandru, the race champ tries to settle the dues for his auto through a race, which is almost a cakewalk for him. He and Bigilu challenge Son of Gun to a race, and a date is fixed.

Bigilu, meanwhile, introduces Chandru to his sister who runs a Biriyani shop. Chandru is attracted to her daughter Rani (Pooja), and woos her. The affair grows stronger and the two end up having sex. The carefree auto driver, however, is not interested in long-term commitment and tells Rani so. Shocked, Rani curses him and moves away. On the D-day, Chandru is distracted by the memories of his love affair and loses the race. He loses his auto, and later, Bigilu comes to know about the affair. The sub-plot of a smuggler's search for missing pearls adds flavour to the proceedings. The unpredictable and fun filled climax puts everything in order.

The film was earlier titled as "Auto". When directors Pushkar and Gayathri were travelling in an auto rickshaw they met an auto driver and received information about them, director said that this film will throw light on auto race. For the role of autodriver Arya observed many auto-drivers. Pooja was selected to play a Biriyaniseller pairing with Arya for second time after Ullam Ketkumae. Malayalam actor lal was selected to play supporting role while debutant John Vijay was selected to play negative character called "Son of Gun". For the first time ever, a song sequence with a duration of four minutes, has been filmed in a single shot. Arya done the most risky shots without a dupe ad for a scene that involves him driving the auto in mount road he did that in the peak hour traffic in high speed with a camera mounted on the windscreen of the auto.
