Vignesh Shivan's Love Insurance Kompany (LIK) has been announced to stream on Prime Video from May 6. The film starring Pradeep Ranganathan and Krithi Shetty in the lead, opened in theatres on April 10.
The film follows the story of a man, who goes up against an institution which pushes for a romance that is backed by technology. The cast of the film includes SJ Suryah, Seeman, Gouri G Kishan, and others.
LIK took a long road to opening in theatres after its release date was changed three times. Upon its release it received mixed reviews from critics, and performed averagely at the box office, after four weeks in the theatre.
CE's review of the film reads, "Algorithms have taken over everything... from classrooms to living rooms. Comfort aside, the line between support and control is increasingly obscured. It's befuddling to let your flights of fancy determine where all this ends, if it all. In Love Insurance Kompany (LIK), director Vignesh Shivan has touched upon the theme of futuristic romance, which is pregnant with promise. With a story idea of endless possibilities, the limit is your pen running dry. But LIK is terrifyingly basic. The quasi-future setup restricts itself to the romantic conflicts, leaving gaping holes in world-building. What is more painful than an irredeemably bad film is a film that squanders opportunities."
