Andhra Pori (transl. Andhra girl) is a 2015 Indian Telugu-language romantic drama film directed by Raj Madiraju and starring Akash Puri and Ulka Gupta.
The Andhra Association of Telangana petitioned the court against the film's title, arguing that the word pori is an "objectionable word to degrade the self-respect of the girl". The court dismissed the plea.[1] The film is an official remake of 2014 Marathi film Timepass starring Prathamesh Parab and Ketaki Mategaonkar[2][3][4] which was based on author Shaiju Mathew's novel Knocked Up that released in 2010.[5]

Reception
A critic from The Hindu wrote that "All in all, Andhra Pori doesn’t satisfy anyone, the treatment is average and superficial. Surprising that Raj Madiraju who dealt with a far more complicated script like Rushi loses out while striking a balance between high emotion and romance".[6] A critic from 123telugu wrote that "On the whole, Andhra Pori marks a decent debut for Akash Puri. This young actor has a bright future and would be good if he takes a break and comes back well trained in all department".[7]
