When Keerthy Suresh rejected a film opposite Nithiin
Keerthy, who is known for working with several big celebs in the South industry, rejected to do Maestro, a Telugu remake of Andhadhun, with Nithiin. Director Merlapaka Gandhi approached the actress for the role of Nithiin's girlfriend and narrated the story which demanded intimate scenes, including liplocks. Upon hearing this, the actress refused the project owing to her on-screen kissing policy.
Despite Keerthy being the first choice of the director, he had to cast Nabha Natesh as he wanted to replicate the original's intensity.
The film was received well by the audience and they praised the performance of the cast including Nithiin, Tamannaah Bhatia and Nabha.
