Unnaipol Oruvan (also released internationally under the translated title Someone Like You) is a 2009 Indian Tamil-language vigilante thriller film directed by Chakri Toleti in his directorial debut. It stars Kamal Haasan and Mohanlal. The film was simultaneously made in Telugu as Eenadu (transl. Today) with Venkatesh playing Mohanlal's role, both remakes of the 2008 Hindi film A Wednesday!. Set in Chennai and Hyderabad in the Tamil and Telugu versions respectively, the film depicts the confrontation between an anonymous caller who has planted bombs in the city and wants four terrorists to be released, and a police commissioner who tries to hunt him down.

Released on 18 September 2009, both Unnaipol Oruvan and Eenadu received positive reviews from the critics and were commercially successful. The Tamil version film was dubbed and released in Malayalam as Oru Budhanazhcha, which translates to A Wednesday akin to the title of the film it is based on.
