Bharath Arun pronunciation  (born December 14, 1962, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh) was an Indian Test cricketer.

The bearded Arun was a medium pacer and an attacking lower order batsman. In the semifinal of the 1986/87 Duleep Trophy he hit 149 and added 221 for the seventh wicket with W. V. Raman as South Zone chased a West total of 516 for the first innings lead [1]. A 107* for India Under-25 against the visiting Sri Lankans just before the selection of the side for the Tests against Sri Lanka won him a place in the side.

He played two Test matches of the series with the 3 for 76 in his maiden innings as his best bowling figures. He toured Sharjah in 1987 and appeared in all of India's three matches without distinction. He was a part of the Tamil Nadu team that won the Ranji Trophy in 1987/88 but did not do much either with the bat or the ball.
