Vanakkam Thalaiva (transl.Welcome Leader) is a 2005 Indian Tamil-language comedy thriller film directed by Sakthi Paramesh. It stars Sathyaraj, Abbas, Susan, and Vivek.

The plot is dramatically woven around the different roles donned by Satyaraj and the reason behind him taking up such roles. The movie begins with Manickam (Sathyaraj) kidnapping Divya (Susan), who is the girlfriend of Mano (Abbas). Mano decides to rescue Divya, but fails to do so after repeated attempts. In every attempt, he is foiled by Manickam through one of his many disguises.

At this point, Mano's friend Aruchamy (Vivek) comes to help him in his dilemma. Aruchamy is a suspended police officer and managed to be appointed by Manickam to be his lorry cleaner. This way, he and Mano are able to trace out where Divya is held. Mano, realizing that it is Manickam who has been foiling his attempts to rescue Divya, goes to the place where she is kept hidden along with the police.

Divya suddenly says that she was married to Manickam years ago and that she never knew Mano, causing Mano to go crazy.

Finally, Aruchamy makes Manickam confess the truth. Manickam's wife Ramya (Pranathi) was run over by Mano's, who was under the influence of alcohol at the time. The case was covered up using his wealth and status.
