Hyderabad: The makers of director Ravi Namburii’s eagerly awaited Telugu romantic entertainer ‘Chennai Love Story’, featuring actors Kiran Abbavaram, and Sri Gouri Priya in the lead, have now announced that the film will hit screens on July 24 this year.
Mass Movie Makers, the production house producing the film, took to its social media timelines to make the announcement. It wrote, “The wait is over. #ChennaiLoveStory – A timeless tale of love is ready to touch hearts across the world. Arriving in cinemas, Worldwide on July 24th. A Magical Love Story from the makers of #ColourPhoto & #Baby, with mesmerizing Music by Mani Sharma.”
Sri Gouri Priya, for her part, took to Instagram to share the date announcement poster. She wrote, “July 24!!! Chennai Love Story releasing worldwide! Come fall in love!”
For the unaware, Sri Gouri Priya shot to fame with her performance in the Tamil romantic drama ‘Lover’, which went on to emerge not just a superhit film. Lover not only set the cash registers ringing at the box office, it was also hailed by the critics for its content that dealt with toxic relationships.
While Kiran Abbavaram plays a character called Steven Sankar in Chennai Love Story, Sri Gouri Priya plays a character called Nivi in the film.
A teaser released by the makers earlier shows Steven Sankar and Nivi having a conversation at a beach. Nivi asks Steven Sankar if he has watched the film ‘Baby’ and praises the way they have portrayed first love in it. She says that if one’s first love fails, life turns into hell. She says an individual’s first love is pure and that there is an element of truth in it, seeking to suggest that all other love affairs that happen after it aren’t as honest or pure.
Steven Sankar responds to her argument saying, “If first love is the only one that is pure and honest, shouldn’t all our love stories stop with our mothers. For isn’t every individual’s first love his/her mother?” Stating that there are several iconic love stories in history, Steven Sankar points out that for the protagonists of such stories, the love story for which they became famous wasn’t their first love. He says that if one’s first love fails for some reason, one’s best love is about to start somewhere else.
Apart from directing the film, Ravi Namburii has also penned its screenplay. The film’s story is by Sai Rajesh, who is also one of the producers of the film.
The film is being produced by SKN under the banners of Mass Movie Makers and Amrutha Productions. The film is being co-produced by Dheeraj Mogilineni.
On the technical front, the film has music by Mani Sharma. Cinematography for the film is by the very capable Viswas Daniel while lyrics for the songs in the film are by Anantha Sriram.
