'''''Nagarame Nanni''''' is a 1967 [[Malayalam language]] [[film]], written by [[M. T. Vasudevan Nair]] and directed by [[A. Vincent]].<ref>[[C. S. Venkiteswaran]] (27 February 2015). [http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/guiding-light-of-malayalam-cinema/article6936773.ece "Guiding light of Malayalam cinema"]. ''The Hindu''. Retrieved 12 December 2017.</ref> The film stars [[Prem Nazir]], Usha Nandhini, [[Madhu (actor)|Madhu]] and [[K. P. Ummer]] among others. The film tells the story of a family that migrates from a village to the city of [[Madras]] in search of a better life. The theme was about the lure of the city and how the dreams of villagers are shattered by its inexorable logic of greed. The plot is similar to the 1965 film ''The Conquerors of the Golden City'', directed by Getin Gurtop and the 1964 film ''[[Birds of Exile]]'' (''Gurbet Kuslari'' in Turkish) by [[Halit Refig]].<ref name=Vijayakumar/> [[K. Balachander]]'s Tamil film ''Pattina Pravesham'' (1977) was plagiarised from all these three films.<ref name=Vijayakumar/>
 
Film expert B. Vijayakumar of ''[[The Hindu]]'' described the film as "one of the best social movies produced in Malayalam."<ref name=Vijayakumar>B. Vijayakumar (22 February 2010).
