Sirithu Vazha Vendum (English: Live cheerfully), is a 1974 Indian Tamil directed by S. S. Balan, starring M. G. Ramachandran in the lead role and Latha, M. N. Nambiar among others. The movie is a remake of 1973 movie Zanjeer.

During his childhood, Ramu (MGR) escapes from killing during the massacre of his parents. He grows up, haunted by the memory of this horrible night, drawing indefatigably a white horse, resulting from the curb chain bracelet of the mysterious killer. Later, he finds the murderer some years later on his policeman's way with the help of Usthad Abdul Rahman (MGR), (an ex-owner of cabaret), and settle the score with him.

The film is a remake of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan starrer Zanjeer (1973) Hindi film. It is the 125th movie of MGR. It was the only time, when the son of S. S. Vasan, boss of The Gemini Circuit, shows an MGR, in the skin of a violent, fashionable cop in the 70s and in the time-honored expression : "...in the unorthodox, fast and muscular methods". The film has adopted a style that does not differ from Poliziotteschi like Piedone lo sbirro, in 1973 or more seriously High Crime , also in 1973. The song "Konja Neram Ennai..." was intended at first for the movie Inaintha Kaikal(with MGR) which does not live finally in the daytime. The title of the movie was inspired by a song of the soundtrack of the success of the previous year, Ulagam Sutrum Valiban, another MGR's Film.
