The trailer for Lover, the upcoming Tamil film starring actor Manikandan in the lead role, was released by the makers on social media on Saturday. The film is set to hit theatres on February 9.

The trailer for Lover focuses heavily on the courtship period between the couple, played by Manikandan and Sri Gouri Priya. The film is written and directed by Prabhuram Vyas in his feature film debut. He made the web series Livin earlier. Manikandan was last seen in the 2023 hit film Good Night, in which he portrayed the role of Motor Mohan, a man whose snoring problem creates a rift in his marital life. It is to be noted that Manikandan’s Lover will be hitting theatres along with Lal Salaam, starring Vishnu Vishal, Vikranth and Rajinikanth in cameo roles.

What do we see in the Lover trailer?

The trailer begins with Manikandan sending a voicemail to his girlfriend, wishing her a happy birthday.

There are also instances of taking the next step, financial insecurity, and trust between them. The trailer also introduces the concept of what a healthy relationship is. In due course, we also see how the couple passes through various stages of their relationship. The trailer ends with the audience left to guess if the couple will reunite amid all their conflicts.
