Tandra Paparayudu is a 1986 Indian Telugu-language biographical war film directed by Dasari Narayana Rao and produced by U. Suryanarayana Raju under the Gopi Krishna Movies banner.

Despite being made on a high budget of ₹1.5 crore, the film was a major box-office failure. It was screened at the 11th International Film Festival of India and won two Nandi Awards.
