The Kollidam (referred to as Coleroon in Colonial English) is a river in southeastern India. The Kollidam is the northern distributary of the Kaveri River as it flows through the delta of Thanjavur. It splits from the main branch of the Kaveri River at the island of Srirangam and flows eastward into the Bay of Bengal. The distribution system in Kollidam lies at Lower Anaicut which is an island of river Kollidam.

El río Kolidam (Coleroon en inglés colonial), se halla en el estado de Tamil Nadu, en el sudeste de la India. Es un distributario, es decir, uno de los brazos en que se divide el río Kaveri, uno de los grandes ríos de la India, en el delta de Thanvajur, y corre paralelo al río madre durante unos 28 km para volver a unirse tras haber formado la isla de Srirangam. En el extremo sur de la isla arranca de nuevo y continúa en solitario hasta el mar, donde desagua cerca de Devakottai, en la bahía de Bengala.
