When Prabhu Ram Vyas spoke about Lover

Speaking with CE in an earlier interview, director Prabhu revealed that Lover will talk about what goes into making a relationship work.

It was also a story revolving around contemporary live-in relations. Asked if Lover is similar to LIVIN, Vyas shared, "While LIVIN had a light-hearted take on modern relationships, Lover will be a little more serious with drama and intense emotions involved."

Manikandan was last seen in Good Night whereas Gouri Priya is comparably a new face in showbiz with just two releases before Lover - Mad and Modern Lover Chennai.
