The Storyteller

Directed by Anant Mahadevan

With Paresh Rawal, Adil Hussain, Tannishtha Chatterjee, Jayesh More and Revathi

After decades of working in the printing industry in Kolkata in eastern India, Tarini has reached retirement age. He spends his days at home, having declined his son’s invitation to come to the United States. Then a friend shows him a help-wanted ad. Although he has never published a book, Tarini used to tell made-up stories to his friends in his youth, and the ad for a storyteller in Ahmedabad in western India piques his interest.
