Abishan Jeevinth and Anaswara Rajan's latest film With Love has been receiving praise from all quarters for its relatable and feel-good storyline since its release last week. The romantic drama has also been witnessing significant footfall in theatres and has crossed Rs 11 crore within three days of its release. Following its positive reception, Rajinikanth had met the cast and crew to appreciate their work on the film.
The team, including producers Soundarya Rajinikanth and Magesh Raj Pasilian, actors Abishan and Anaswara, composer Sean Roldan, among others were all in wide smiles as they greeted the star and clicked pictures with him. Sharing a heartfelt video, Soundarya wrote, "With love, with the one and only, my appa. This is not just a meet, This is an emotion. Superstar Rajinikanth appreciates the With Love team priceless moment."
With Love, directed by Madhan in his debut, is Abishan's first film as the lead after helming the hit Tourist Family last year with Sasikumar and Simran. It is also Anaswara's first film as the female lead in Tamil. The film also stars Saravanan, Ayaz Khan, Harish Kumar, Kavya Anil, Sacchin Nachiappan and Ravi Mariya, among others.
For the uninitiated, Abishan had earlier in an interview had recalled Rajinikanth's appreciation for Tourist Family and his encouragement to pursue acting. "He called me a 'hero'," he noted. "It broke all my insecurities. He further encouraged me to pursue acting, stating that the director's chair would always be waiting for me," he said.
The rest of the technical crew includes Shreyaas Krishna as the cinematographer and Sureshkumar K as the editor. The film is produced by Magesh Raj Pasilian's MRP Entertainment, the banner behind Tourist Family, along with Soundarya Rajinikanth's Zion Films.
