The film is produced under Avanika Films, a banner established by Gaurav Verma. It is co-presented by Phars Studios in collaboration with Bhavana Studios. Verma’s venture aims to support stories that blend emotional depth with broad theatrical appeal.
Gaurav Verma’s New Venture
With “Prem Keetanu,” Gaurav Verma embarks on a new journey with Avanika Films, focusing on narratives that resonate with audiences. Before launching his own production house, Verma gained valuable experience as an independent producer with Red Chillies Entertainment. His portfolio includes successful films such as “Darlings,” “Bhakshak,” “Jawan,” and “Badla,” which have garnered both critical acclaim and commercial success.
The film’s release is strategically timed for October 2, 2026, coinciding with the Gandhi Jayanti holiday. This timing is expected to create a competitive theatrical environment, as “Prem Keetanu” will face off against Ajay Devgn’s “Drishyam 3,” which is also set to release on the same day.
A Promising Adaptation
“Prem Keetanu” is an official remake of the 2024 Malayalam hit film “Premalu,” which achieved significant box office success, crossing the Rs 100 crore mark worldwide. Directed by Girish AD, the original film starred Naslen and Mamitha Baiju and became one of the highest-grossing Malayalam films of 2024.
As Gaurav Verma continues to expand his production horizons, “Prem Keetanu” stands as a promising addition to his growing portfolio. The teaser’s release has already sparked interest, setting the stage for what could be a memorable cinematic experience.
