This article is about the Tamil epic poem. For the 2011 movie, see Ponnar Shankar (film).

Ponnar and Shankar, who became rulers of Ponni Valanadu in medieval Tamil Nadu, south India, were twin sons of a Gounder warrior caste couple, Nellian Kodan (or Kunru Udiyaan) and his wife Thamari. They are credited with saving their people from an invasion.

The story of the brothers has become the foundation for poems, songs, a film, and a Tamil historical novel by M. Karunanidhi. (Although there is no official geographic area called Kongu Nadu at present, it covers the districts of Coimbatore, Salem, Tirupur, Erode, Namakkal, Karur, Thiruchirappalli, Dharmapuri, Krishnagiri, Nilgiris and Dindigul in Tamil Nadu, India
