Mouni is a 2003 Indian Kannada language film directed by B. S. Lingadevaru, and is based on a novella of U. R. Ananthamurthy. It stars H. G. Dattatreya and Anant Nag in the lead roles.
Kuppanna Bhatta and Appanna Bhatta are areca cultivators and custodians of the math's property. The story revolves around the tensions and circumstances that shape and influence their relationship.
Director B. S. Lingadevaru comes from an agricultural family that sells coconuts. He found one of U. R. Ananthamurthy's 1966 novellas about areca nut sellers relevant, so he made a film about it.
