More about Love Insurance Corporation

The cast includes Nayanthara and Seeman in undisclosed roles and is currently filming at the Isha Yoga Centre, with three days of shooting already completed. The first schedule is expected to conclude soon. The film, described as a romantic drama, is yet to disclose more details about its storyline.

Anirudh Ravichander is on board as the music composer, and it also features SJ Suryah and Yogi Babu in significant roles and was launched in December 2023.

Controversy around Love Insurance Corporation

Recent reports suggest that the film has encountered a hurdle related to its title. The Life Insurance Corporation (LIC), a government organisation in the insurance and investment sector, has reportedly sent a notice to director Vignesh Shivan and Seven Screen Studio, the film's production house. The notice prohibits the use of the title 'LIC' for the movie, citing potential copyright infringement.

If the title isn't changed within the next 7 days, the notice warns of impending legal action. The filmmakers have not yet responded to the notice. 'Love Insurance Corporation' is edited by Pradeep Ragav and is being bankrolled by S. S. Lalit Kumar and Vignesh himself under Seven Screen Studio and Rowdy Pictures.
