The dark humour also seems missing in the way the film progresses. Given the gist of the film, it seems like the tweaks try to redeem a character even as the ending brings them back to square one. So, to have them act out of nothing but self-preservation takes away from the nuttiness of the way they’re fleshed out. Every single one of these characters are willing to cross a line when it comes down to it, some more harmful than the others.

The script’s strength lies in the fact that no one, except for maybe Sophie, Mohan and his daughter Pavithra (Ananya Nagalla) are as harmless as they seem. Maestro stays true to the original Hindi film for the most part though fans of Andhadhun might find the additions to the script unnecessary. An illicit affair leaves murders in its wake, a key witness must find a way to save themselves and a rabbit escapes a cabbage farm right on time. Maestro also sees Jisshu Sengupta as a CI called Bobby, Sreemukhi as his wife Lucky and Harshavardhan as a doctor looking to make a quick buck. He’s been married to a much-younger Simran (Tamannaah Bhatia) since two years and she harbours the dream of being an actress. Elsewhere there’s an ageing superstar called Mohan (Naresh) who loves re-watching his old films to remember lost glory. Sophie (Nabha Natesh) and her father Pedro (Balakrishna) allow him to play at their struggling restaurant. He plays his music at local restaurants to make ends meet and save enough money to head abroad. By the time the scene where a lead knocks a soda can out of their way rolls around, you’re left with mixed feelings.Īrun (Nithiin) is a blind pianist in Goa, living in the handicapped quarters with only his cat Rani for company. While the basic beats of the film remain familiar and it’s almost a frame to frame remake, there are hearts tugged by sentiment and key plot points spoon-fed while it was left to imagination in the original. Maestro Review: Merlapaka Gandhi attempts to take on the award-winning black comedy Andhadhun and tweak it a little bit for Maestro. Having dug his own grave, will he find a way to claw out of it? Maestro Story: A blind pianist’s carefully constructed life unravels when he takes up a private gig at the house of an ageing actor.
