Multi talented Vijay Antony has made a name for himself in the South film industry by taking on various conceptual movies. For the first time, he ventures into the romantic entertainer genre with "Love Guru." In this film, Mrinalini Ravi plays the female lead. Produced by Vijay Antony himself under the Vijay Antony Film Corporation and presented by Meera Vijay Antony, the film is directed by Vinayak Vaidyanathan. "Love Guru" is set for release on April 11, during the Ramzan festival. A press meet for the movie was held today in Hyderabad. At this event:
Hero Vijay Antony stated, "Almost 95 percent of people face love problems, especially boys, who find handling girls challenging. 'Love Guru' will enlighten viewers on managing such situations. As the Love Guru, I offer solutions to these dilemmas. The film humorously depicts the myriad of problems I face with a girl named Leela and how they are overcome. We plan to release 'Love Guru' in approximately 500 to 600 theaters across the Telugu States on the occasion of Ramzan on April 11. Having worked on 12-13 films, with Bhashyashree contributing to 8-9 of them, our collaboration dates back to the movie 'Beggar.' The storyline is beautifully crafted. Heroine Mrinalini Ravi delivers a compelling performance, fully embracing her character. Our director invested a year to develop a solid script and executed it well on screen. In 'Love Guru,' love transcends sisterly affection, with its universal appeal. Married viewers will gain deeper insights into understanding the women in their lives after watching 'Love Guru.' I would like to express my gratitude to our cinematographer Farooq and music director Bharat for their excellent contributions. Let's reconvene at the 'Love Guru' success meet."
Director Vinayak Vaidyanathan shared, "I was part of the direction team for 'Oke Oka Jeevitham,' starring Sharwanand as the hero, and spent three months in Hyderabad. During that time, I observed the Telugu industry's appreciation for artists. It's a pleasure to return with 'Love Guru.' Directing Vijay Antony has been an unforgettable experience. 'Love Guru' will be a memorable film for the audience, akin to Vijay Antony's 'Bichagadu.' This movie represents a new chapter, Vijay Antony 2.0, showcasing diverse expressions of love. Vijay portraying such a character is a novelty."
Heroine Mrinalini Ravi expressed, "I portray Leela in 'Love Guru.' I'm grateful to Vijay Antony for entrusting me with this role. Training under Kalairani was invaluable for embodying Leela accurately. Vijay Antony is known for serious roles, but his romantic side in this film will be a fresh experience for audiences, likely increasing his female fanbase. The film's music and cinematography will stand out. My thanks go to the entire team for their support during production."
Lyricist Bhashyashree commented, "Director Vinayak has crafted a compelling script for 'Love Guru.' He's bound to make a mark in the Telugu cinema as well. Vijay Antony showcases a side never seen before in this film. His acting is commendable, as is Mrinalini Ravi's portrayal of a modern-minded woman. I'm thankful to Vinayak and Vijay Antony for the opportunity to contribute to 'Love Guru.' The Telugu audience will surely embrace it."
