Nagorao Ghanashyam Deshpande (Devanagari: नागोराव घनश्याम देशपांडे) (1909–2000) was a Marathi poet from Maharashtra, India.

He was born on 21 August 1909 in the town of Shendurjan in Buldhana District of Maharashtra.

He lived most of his life in the town of Mehkar, also in Buldhana District. Because of his premature birth, he suffered considerable sickness through much of his life of 91 years.
