For actress Anaswara Rajan, the premiere of her upcoming film 'With Love' transformed into an unforgettable cinematic moment that will remain etched in her memory forever. The young star was accompanied by her parents for the special screening, but the evening took an extraordinary turn when none other than superstar Rajinikanth made a surprise appearance to watch the film.
A Dream Come True Meeting
Anaswara Rajan felt her journey in the film industry coming full circle as she introduced her parents to the legendary actor. The meeting held special significance because her father happens to be Rajinikanth's biggest admirer. Having grown up watching her father idolize the superstar, witnessing Thalaivar himself arrive for her film's preview created a surreal experience for the entire family.
The actress captured this priceless moment and shared it on her social media handles, writing emotionally: "From Achan's favorite hero on screen to a moment I'll never forget off it, seeing my achan light up like a child meeting Thalaivar at #withlove's premiere feels like cinema coming full circle."
About 'With Love'
Meanwhile, Anaswara Rajan's 'With Love' is gearing up for its theatrical release on February 6. Directed by Madan, the film features 'Tourist Family' director Abishan Jeevinth alongside Anaswara Rajan in lead roles. The narrative revolves around contemporary youth and their complex relationships, promising to deliver a light-hearted cinematic experience.
In an earlier conversation with The New Indian Express, Anaswara Rajan shared her thoughts about the project: "Romcom is a universal genre, and the kind of story With Love is setting out to say, I believe the film will connect with everyone.

Celebrity Reactions
The preview screening attracted several notable personalities from the film industry. After watching 'With Love', Rajinikanth expressed that he found the film 'very nice', while actress Shruthi Haasan noted that the movie carries a genuine feel-good vibe.
