A heartwarming comedy about forgotten dreams and second chances.
Ramesh Babu once imagined his name shining on movie posters. Today, he’s just a common man with a dusty ceiling fan and a patient wife. But when fate unexpectedly casts him in a film, the world he’d left behind flickers back to life. What does this film offer — a return to glory, or just another fleeting illusion? In the chaos of a movie set and the warmth of home, Ramesh discovers that sometimes the smallest moments can light up an entire life. Blending humour, nostalgia, and heartfelt storytelling, THE STAR invites you to laugh, reflect, and remember — it’s never too late for your close-up.
Based on the short story "Patol Babu- The Star" by Satyajit Ray.
