Peraanmai (transl. Valour) is a 2009 Indian Tamil-language, action-adventure film that was directed by S. P. Jhananathan and produced by Ayngaran International. The film stars Ravi Mohan (credited as Jayam Ravi), Vasundhara, Saranya, Liyasree, Dhansika and Varsha Ashwathi (credited as Maha). It follows a National Cadet Corps (NCC) trainer and five cadets seeking to thwart a group of foreign mercenaries planning to destroy a rocket-launching project.

The core plot of Peraanmai is loosely based on the 1972 Soviet film The Dawns Here Are Quiet. Filming took place between March 2008 and April 2009, and the film was released in theatres on 16 October 2009, coinciding with the festival of Diwali.
