KARACHI — The beloved on-screen duo Mahira Khan and Humayun Saeed are reuniting in Love Guru, a romantic comedy set to release this Eidul Azha. The newly released trailer teases a vibrant blend of humor, romance, mischief, and emotional depth — promising a festive crowd-pleaser.
Directed by hitmaker Nadeem Baig and penned by Vasay Chaudhary (Jawani Phir Nahi Aani), the film introduces a quirky yet heartfelt tale of love, transformation, and second chances. Backed by producers Humayun Saeed, Shahzad Naseeb, and Jerjees Seja, and executive produced by Salman Iqbal, Love Guru features an ensemble cast including Sohai Ali Abro, Mira Sethi, Ramsha Khan, Momina Iqbal, and Javed Sheikh.
💘 From Ladies’ Man to Love-Struck Romantic
The trailer opens with Saeed portraying a smooth-talking “love guru,” helping a runaway bride (Sohai Ali Abro) escape her wedding. Known for juggling multiple romantic interests — each calling him by a different name, from “Bilawal” to “Imran” — his character claims, “My love isn’t meant for just one woman… I want to save them all.”
But the real story begins when he’s asked to meddle in the love life of Sophia Khan (Mahira Khan), an ambitious architect based in London, whose father (Javed Sheikh) disapproves of her chosen partner.
What starts as a mission to sabotage Sophia’s engagement gradually becomes something more tender and complicated as Saeed’s character finds himself emotionally invested — and, for the first time, possibly in love.
🇬🇧 Set Against London’s Backdrop, With All the Festive Feels
The visuals dazzle with scenes of London’s romantic locales, lavish wedding festivities, and warm, heart-to-heart moments on boats, rooftops, and in hot air balloons. Mahira stuns in ethereal saris, while Saeed’s usual comedic charm softens into emotional vulnerability.
“Is it a love marriage?” Saeed asks Sophia.
“No, completely arranged,” she replies — a moment that sets the stage for rising tension and self-discovery.
🎭 Comedy, Heartbreak, and a Touch of Poetry
As the story deepens, so does the emotional pull. A soulful heartbreak song signals a turning point. “I wish I had met you earlier,” he says wistfully. Her reply: “Some things are better left unsaid.”
The trailer’s final moments bring drama, poetic tension, and a quote that echoes long after the screen fades:
“Hamesha der kar deta hoon main” — “I’m always late,” Mahira says, delivering the poetic verse by Muneer Niazi that closes the trailer with emotional weight.
🌟 Why It Matters
With crackling chemistry between two of Pakistani cinema’s biggest stars, Love Guru aims to deliver not just laughs and romance, but a story that reflects on timing, transformation, and the unexpected ways love enters our lives.
With a stellar cast, rich visuals, and a balance of wit and heart, Love Guru is shaping up to be the must-watch film of the Eid season.
