‘Love Insurance Kompany’: Release of Pradeep Ranganathan's Sci- Fi Comedy Pushed Again to April 10
Starring Pradeep Ranganathan and Krithi Shetty in the lead roles and directed by Vignesh Shivan, the film was supposed to release on April 3
The release of Pradeep Ranganathan's next film, the sci-fi romance Love Insurance Kompany has been postponed again to April 10.
Starring Ranganathan and Krithi Shetty in the lead roles and directed by Vignesh Shivan, the release date of April 3 was announced by the film’s makers on social media after months of uncertainty about its theatrical plans. The project had previously faced several postponements before settling on its new slot in early April.
LIK is set to blend romance with science fiction, unfolding in a futuristic version of Chennai in the year 2040. The narrative imagines a world where relationships are increasingly shaped by technology, with dating platforms claiming to predict compatibility and emotional outcomes through data-driven systems.
At the centre of the story is a young man who holds on to traditional notions of love, placing his faith in emotional connection rather than algorithms. His beliefs put him at odds with a society that has largely embraced technology as the foundation of modern relationships. The conflict deepens when he meets Dheema, a technologically adept woman whose perspective on love is shaped by the very systems he resists.
Their relationship soon draws the attention of Suriyan, the chief executive of a powerful dating platform that treats love as a monetisable commodity. As the story progresses, the protagonist finds himself confronting a corporate ecosystem built around predicting and controlling human emotion, setting up a larger clash between instinct and technology.
The film features a supporting cast that includes SJ Suryah, Seeman, Yogi Babu, Gouri G Kishan and Shah Ra, alongside lead actors Ranganathan and Shetty. The music and background score are composed by Anirudh Ravichander, who also lends his voice to a robot character in the film.
Initially scheduled for release on September 18, 2025, the project underwent multiple delays, first moving to a Diwali release window before being postponed again due to scheduling changes.
Shivan’s previous directorial venture was Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal, starring Vijay Sethupathi, Nayanthara and Samantha Ruth Prabhu. Meanwhile, Pradeep Ranganathan was last seen in Dragon and Dude last year, both of which were box-office hits.
