Finally, director Vignesh Shivan announced last week that his film would release on April 3 this year. However, now, it has again been postponed to April 10.
The film has triggered a lot of excitement among fans as it features Pradeep Ranganthan, who until now, has a 100 per cent success record in the Tamil film industry. Every single film of his until now has emerged a success, with his most recent film ‘Dude’ going on to emerge a major blockbuster.
Apart from Pradeep Ranganathan and Krithi Shetty, Love Insurance Kompany will feature actors S J Suryah and Gouri Kishen in pivotal roles.
