Shiva(Telugu:శివా) (1989) is a Telugu movie starring Nagarjuna which deals with violence and student politics inside the college campus. The movie was directed by film-maker Ram Gopal Verma who made his debut with this film. Released on 5th October, 1989 and created box office history in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu (dubbed as Udhayam). This film is considered as a path breaker for more than one reason. The cinematography and audiography of this film were appreciated by even common man who was not aware of those technicalities till then. Nagarjuna's career shot up to galactic levels with the screening of this film. Music by Ilayaraja helped maintenance of tempo in the film.

However, this film has received the brickbats from some circles of society for its blatant depiction of violence by using horrific sound effects and visuals.

The movie, after its success in Tollywood, was remade in Hindi language retaining the principal star cast including Nagarjuna.
