A major cinematic release lit up screens this Eid ul Adha, as Love Guru, a fresh romantic comedy from Pakistan, debuted on June 6, 2025, reaching both domestic and international theaters.
Bringing back beloved names to the silver screen, the film sees superstars Humayun Saeed and Mahira Khan sharing screen space after a long hiatus of three years. Their return has stirred significant buzz, drawing attention from fans and film circles alike.
Directed by seasoned filmmaker Nadeem Baig, Love Guru emerges as the first major cinematic venture from Pakistan following the success of The Legend of Maula Jatt. Scripted by Vasay Chaudhry, the film also boasts a stellar supporting cast including industry veterans like Javed Sheikh and comedic talent Ahmad Ali Butt.
This marks the first on-screen reunion of Mahira and Humayun since Bin Roye, a fact that has only amplified anticipation.
According to Saeed, Love Guru is his most expensive film to date, with production costs exceeding Rs. 25 crore. He expressed optimism that the film could potentially rake in over Rs. 100 crore, pointing to its mass appeal and high entertainment quotient.
While detailed box office figures have yet to be released, early indications suggest the movie has enjoyed a strong kickoff, buoyed by the Eid holiday and audience enthusiasm for the star-studded ensemble. Its success, however, will ultimately hinge on how viewers respond to its humor, storyline, and character dynamics.
Initial reactions from audiences are trickling in, with many cinemagoers appreciating the film’s colorful vibe and the long-awaited reunion of its lead stars.
