National Highway 744 (NH 744), previously known as NH 208, is a key highway in southern India that connects Kollam (Quilon) in Kerala to Madurai in Tamil Nadu. Beginning at Chinnakkada in Kollam, where it intersects with NH 66, the highway extends to Tirumangalam in Madurai, connecting with National Highway 44.

Historically, this route served as a vital link between the cashew and spice-producing Kollam District and the former Madras State. Today, it remains busy, with numerous trucks transporting goods from Tamil Nadu along this stretch. The road passes through the Aryankavu gap, a narrow low-altitude section, offering impressive views, particularly between Thenmala and Sengottai. The iconic Kollam-Sengottai railway line also runs parallel to parts of the highway.

The route includes the following key points:
Chinnakada → Kallumthazham → Keralapuram → Kundara → Ezhukone → Kottarakkara → Melila → Kunnicode → Vilakkudy → Punalur → Edamon → Thenmala → Kazhuthurutty → Aryankavu → Sengottai → Ilanji → Tenkasi → Kadayanallur → Puliangudi → Vasudevanallur → Sivagiri → Seithur → Rajapalayam → Srivilliputtur → Alagapuri → T. Kallupatti → Tirumangalam.

Plans are underway to upgrade a 68-km section of NH 744, between Tirumangalam (on NH 44) and Rajapalayam, into a tolled, four-lane highway. This has been confirmed through reports and project details from NHAI.
