Sugith Varughese (born 1958) is an Indian-born Canadian writer, director and actor.

Born in Cochin, Kerala, into a Syrian Christian family ("Varughese," also sometimes spelled "Varghese" and "Verghese" and variously pronounced, is Syriac for "George"), Neither the famous Dr Abraham Verghese nor the American stand-up comedian Paul Varghese, both also of Malayali Syrian Christian backgrounds, is necessarily any relation of Sugith Varughese: Malayali Syrian Christians do not have public family names (they have "house" names) and their putative surnames are simply their fathers' Christian names. He immigrated to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan as a child when his neurosurgeon father obtained a professional appointment there. His family's native language is Malayalam; having grown up in anglophone western Canada he naturally speaks English with a Canadian accent but from time to time affects an assortment of South Asian accents when playing dramatic roles that call for them.
