About Don't Tell Mother
Aakash, a 9-year-old boy is subjected to physical violence at school by his Math teacher and ends up hiding it from his strict but caring mother. When tragedy arises, irreplaceable bonds are forged between Aakash, his mother and his innocent younger brother, Adi in this tender family drama set in the 90s Bangalore.
Directed by Anoop Lokkur, Don't Tell Mother leans on a strong ensemble — Siddarth Swaroop, Aishwarya Dinesh, Anirudh P Keserker — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about family titles of 2025.
