Story :
Anand aka Bruce Lee (Jiva) is an unemployed BSc grad who is very good with Kung Fu. He does not want to lead a regular salaried life, much to the chagrin of his parents. While he goes about his normal life, the city of Visakhapatnam is under attack from a notorious gang of masked robbers who ruthlessly kill their victims. This gang is very intelligent, does not leave traces and targets only homes with a good amount of gold or jewellery.
To apprehend this gang, a special officer (Nasser) is brought in. Pooja Hegde is seen as the daughter of Nasser and Bruce Lee falls in love with her. He goes out every night in a masked avatar to try and please his lady love. During one such nocturnal adventure, he crosses the path of the gang of robbers and helps the police in catching hold of one member.
This act impresses Pooja. But just when things seem to be going good, tragedy strikes and Bruce Lee gets into big trouble. He also learns that his Kung Fu teacher has a past. To overcome all these obstacles, Bruce Lee must learn a new form of Kung Fu, become a vigilante and outclass his opponents. He takes the help of his grand pa (Girish Karnad) , who is a kind of mad scientist. How he does that and whether he is successful forms the rest of the story.
Mask does not offer much for an entertainment seeking Telugu movie lover. The narration is very slow and there are issues with the plot. A sub-par romantic track does not help either. A few good action Kung Fu action sequences and some good technical values are perhaps the only attractions for the film. If you want a Batman or Spiderman kind of action thriller, Mask will disappoint you.
