What happens

Maara is a 2021 Indian Tamil-language adventure romantic drama film directed by Dhilip Kumar in his directorial debut, and produced by Prateek Chakravorty and Shruti Nallappa of Pramod Films. A remake of the 2015 Malayalam film Charlie by Martin Prakkat, it stars R. Madhavan, Shraddha Srinath, Abhirami, and Sshivada. Pramod Films acquired the remake rights in early 2016, after which it underwent a series of casting and screenplay changes for two years. In June 2018, Dhilip Kumar was announced to direct the film, after Martin Prakkat (the director of the original film), and A. L. Vijay, opted out of the project. Filming commenced in June 2018, with sporadic schedules at Kochi and Pondicherry, before the shooting wrapped up in late 2020. The film's music is composed by Ghibran, with cinematography and editing handled by Dinesh B. Krishnan, Karthik Muthukumar, and Bhuvan Srinivasan, respectively. The film was scheduled for a direct release through over-the-top media services after theatrical release plans failed to happen due to the COVID-19 pandemic in India. Amazon Prime Video, which acquired the streaming rights of the film, premiered it on 8 January 2021. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
