Pullingo (also pullinko, pullaingo or pullingow; Tamil: புல்லைங்கோ) is a Tamil slang referring to male teenagers from North Chennai (India) who colour their hair, have wacky hairstyles, ride Honda Dio scooters and race, wear skin tight jeans, and use specific slang varieties.^[1] The term is found in several districts of Tamil Nadu^[2] and is derived from the Tamil word பிள்ளைகள் (piḷḷaikaḷ), meaning "children".

It was popularized by the 2019 song "Gumbalaga Suthuvom" by Gaana Stephen.^[3]^[4] Pullingos often sing gaana songs which are narrated by them in their own slang.^[2]
