Love Today story (no spoilers)

Love Today is a Tamil romantic comedy released on 4 November 2022. The story centres on Uthaman Pradeep (Pradeep Ranganathan) and Nikitha Shastri (Ivana), a young couple whose relationship is put to the test when they are made to swap phones for a full day. That simple demand sets off a chain of events that turns their lives upside down, mixing humour with emotional fallout. As the day unfolds, the film explores how much they really know about each other and what happens when private conversations and messages become shared property. The tone swings between laugh-out-loud comedy and genuine relationship drama, anchored by a cast that includes Sathyaraj as Venu Shastri, Radhika Sarathkumar as Saraswathi and Yogi Babu as Dr. Yogi. Directed by Pradeep Ranganathan and scored by Yuvan Shankar Raja, Love Today runs 154 minutes and carries a UA certificate in India. It is a light but pointed look at trust, curiosity and the messiness of modern romance.

Should you watch Love Today?

Watch it for

  • Pradeep Ranganathan pulls double duty as director and lead actor, playing Uthaman Pradeep in this comedy-romance.
  • The phone-swap premise drives a blend of humour and emotional tension that defines the film's tone.
  • Sathyaraj, Radhika Sarathkumar and Yogi Babu round out a cast that mixes senior actors with comic support.
  • Yuvan Shankar Raja's music backs a 154-minute runtime that lets the relationship drama play out.

Skip it if

  • You prefer romance without the awkward, invasive tension of a phone-swap premise.
  • You are looking for a short film; 154 minutes is a long sit for a comedy.
  • You want a purely light-hearted comedy and may find the emotional turns too heavy.

Our verdict

Love Today uses a simple phone-swap idea to dig into trust and curiosity, and Pradeep Ranganathan keeps it lively as both director and star. The 154-minute runtime lets the comedy and emotion breathe, though the premise may feel invasive to some. It is an honest, engaging look at modern relationships with a strong supporting cast.
