Maestro

Arun plays the piano. He lives in Goa. He tells people he is blind. In fact he can see. He keeps the pretence up because it helps his work. A cat named Rani lives with him. One day he goes to the house of a former film actor. There he witnesses a killing. He has to go on acting as though he saw nothing. From that moment things pile up on him. The lie protects him and traps him at the same time. This is a Telugu remake of an Indian film from 2018. The story runs between thriller and black comedy. Nithiin, Tamannaah Bhatia, Nabha Natesh and Jisshu Sengupta appear in the hundred and thirty five minute film. It did not go to cinemas but came out on a streaming platform in September 2021, an Indian production Merlapaka Gandhi finished in 2021.
