Maaro (Violent But Silent) is a 2011 Indian Telugu-language action comedy film directed by Siddique. It stars Nithiin and Meera Chopra in the lead roles. The film was shot in 2005 and in 2006, the film was shelved. It was eventually released in 2011 to cash in on director Siddique's recent success with Bodyguard. The music is scored by Mani Sharma. The film was remade in Tamil as Sadhu Miranda, which ended up releasing three years prior to Maaro. The film is loosely based on the director's own 1995 Malayalam film Mannar Mathai Speaking which was based on the 1958 movie Vertigo.
