With the Mask, Rangan generates followers, becomes a film star, and gets a wife who loves him solely for his handsome face (Roja). Nearing the end, Rangan takes off the Mask for a moment, and wishes people would respect him for who he is on the inside. His wife walks in, sees his ugly face, and throws him out, mistaking him for a robber. Rangan's former followers throw him to the side. Deciding that only beauty can bring him respect, Rangan puts the mask back on and lives the life of actor.
Release
A critic felt that "The storyline would be excellent to read in a novel, but the reality in film is incredibly slow-paced and implausible." and "that the actors do the best with what they have, but the result is still a very boring long drawn-out masterpiece gone horribly wrong."
The film did poorly at the box office and was played on television within 2 weeks of release.
