Mahira and Humayun set to reunite in 'Love Guru'
The Bin Roye leads are reuniting for romance feature Love Guru, a Nadeem Baig film slated for Eidul Azha this year. The screenplay is written by Vasay Chaudhry. "Presenting the official poster of Love Guru, starring the ever-charming Humayun Saeed and the breathtaking Mahira Khan!" the director wrote on Instagram. "Witness their chemistry unfold on the silver screen this Eidul Azha!"
Unveiled on Tuesday, the poster features Mahira in a breezy white dress and Humayun in a classy suit vest, as they hold each other under the spotlight in what appears to be a vacant mansion. As specks of light trickle down on the two, a soft instrumental plays on top, promising a tale of romance layered with unforgettable music.
Fans were quick to express their anticipation in the comments section. "This is too far away!" a user wrote. "Wait, am I dreaming? After a decade, the Bin Roye cast reunion is finally happening!" another gushed.
Mahira's fans in particular are excited to see the star on the big screen once more. "It's been a hot minute since we've seen you on the big screen. So excited for this! All the best," a user wrote, while another said, "OMG! Can't wait to see you on the big screen. This is going to be a hit."
Although not much is known about the film, it was filmed in the UK, as confirmed by Mahira at an event in London in November last year. "I've only done one project here. We've been shooting it for over a month. It's a film, Love Guru," she said in a video uploaded by Arab News on YouTube.
Love Guru will mark Mahira's return to the big screen after three years. Previously, she starred in The Legend of Maula Jatt (2022), a reboot of the Punjabi-language film following the same eponymous character.
Also starring Fawad Khan and Hamza Ali Abbasi, the film grossed $13.8 million worldwide and became the highest-grossing Pakistani film of all time. According to Screen Daily, a British film publication, it broke records at the UK box office, becoming the highest-grossing picture from South Asia at the time.
Meanwhile, Humayun's catalogue is also packed with hit films, including London Nahi Jaungi (2022) and Jawani Phir Nahi Ani (2015). In 2018, his film Punjab Nahi Jaungi became the highest-grossing film of its time, surpassing Humayun's previous venture, Jawani Phir Nahi Ani.
