In the world of cinema, where innovation reigns supreme, producer Prerna Arora and director Suresh Krissna are set to challenge Indian cinema norms with ‘Hero Heeroine.’ Known for groundbreaking projects like ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’ and ‘Padman,’ Arora promises fresh narratives. “Hero Heeroine” is a love saga exploring the dynamics between reel and real.
However, it was during a recent coffee rendezvous in Chennai that Prerna Arora and Suresh Krissna stumbled upon a revelation that would change the course of their project. Why confine the narrative to Hindi in a city steeped in the rich tapestry of Telugu cinema? Just as Tamil, Malayalam, or Bengali talents contribute to the magic of Hindi cinema, the film showcases a diverse cast and crew from different corners of the country, converging in Hyderabad to create something truly extraordinary.
“This is more than just a film; it’s a cultural phenomenon,” says Prerna Arora. “The South Indian film industry boasts immense talent, globally recognised for its potential to reach the Oscars. With ‘Hero Heeroine,’ we have the opportunity to honour this illustrious legacy. ‘Ek Duuje Ke Liye’ holds a special place in my heart,” admits Prerna Arora. “Its poignant storytelling and unforgettable characters have left an indelible mark on audiences across generations. Ramoji Film City, with its mesmerising allure, has captivated me deeply, especially after my collaboration on a music album with Aishwarya Rajnikant. The unparalleled discipline and work culture in the South, coupled with the vibrant hues of its rich culture, has become a fascination with audiences globally with access to regional language films on digital platforms.”
“In ‘Hero Heeroine,’ we’re breaking barriers and blurring boundaries, bringing together the best of both North and South Indian cinema, creating a narrative that resonates with audiences across the nation. With its unique blend of languages and cultures, ‘Hero Heeroine’ is poised to redefine the very essence of cinematic storytelling,” expresses director Suresh Krissna, reflecting on the project’s potential to revolutionise the perception of South Indian cinema.

“As my acting journey commenced in Telugu cinema, I am thrilled to embrace the challenges of portraying the leading lady in ‘Hero Heeroine.’ The prospect of embodying a character intricately woven into Hyderabad’s vibrant culture within a bilingual narrative fills me with excitement. I, as a producer and director myself, understand the importance of authenticity in storytelling and teamed with Prerna Arora and director Suresh Krissna for their unwavering confidence in my abilities,” adds Divya Khossla.
As the project gains momentum, stay tuned as ‘Hero Heeroine’ prepares to take flight.
