Anand[a] is a 2004 Indian Telugu-language drama film written and directed Sekhar Kammula.[2] Produced jointly by Amigos Creations and National Film Development Corporation of India, the film stars Raja and Kamalinee Mukherjee. The film begins with the death of the family of a young girl as a result of a character's drunken driving. The film sketches the path of the young girl growing up into a woman who lives her life independently and with self-esteem. How the male protagonist enters the woman's life and how they fall in love with each other forms the rest of the story.

The film's basic story was also chosen as the subject for Sekhar Kammula's thesis screenplay, which was a requirement for his Master of Fine Arts at Howard University.[3][4] The film was screened at the International Film Festival of India in the mainstream section.[5]

The film was well received by critics and became successful at the box office. It was remade in Tamil as Ninaithale.[6][7] The film went on to win the Nandi Awards among several other prominent awards. If the award-winning Dollar Dreams (2000) set the tone, then Anand introduced the legacy of successful films made with simple stories.[8][9] The film's soundtrack was well appreciated for its soft melodies.[10]
