Meenakshi Sundareshwar teaser: Sanya Malhotra, Abhimanyu Dassani play opposites in this charming film on arranged marriage

Modern meets traditional in Meenakshi Sundareshwar (2021) which sees Sanya Malhotra and Abhimanyu Dassani play a young couple who enter into an arranged marriage and find their relationship tested by geography.

Set in Madurai, the new teaser for the upcoming film, directed by first-time filmmaker Vivek Soni, shows Meenakshi (Malhotra) holding the upper hand in the relationship as she grills her shy suitor Sundareshwar (Dassani). But he seems to pass the test and they tie the knot in a traditional Tamil ceremony.

However, the two are quickly separated as they reside in different cities, likely for work reasons. They each give it their all, but it seems some conflict comes in the way. The teaser hints that Meenakshi and Sundareshwar’s differences play a large part in that.

Malhotra and Dassani, who are paired together for the first time, look the part and make for a sweet couple. The film seems to greatly rely on their chemistry as the story revolves around their relationship.

Soni has also co-written the film with Aarsh Vora. The music for the film has been composed by Justin Prabhakaran. Produced by Dharmatic Entertainment, Meenakshi Sundareshwar is due to be released on Netflix on 5 November.
