With Love is a 2026 Indian romantic comedy-drama film directed by Madhan and written by Madhan. The film was released in India on 6 February 2026.
The movie With Love is produced by Zion Films and MRP Entertainment, and marks Madhan's directorial debut and Abhishek Jeevant's first leading role. The title is a teen-oriented romantic story that brings a sense of nostalgia, first love, and a reunion with the past.
The main character, Satya, is initially skeptical about the idea of a blind date set up by his sister, something he sees as a cliché. However, fate brings him together with Monisha, with whom he discovers that they attended the same school years ago. Gradually, conversations about the past, shared memories, and unlocked emotions bring them closer together as the two try to understand if there could be more than just friendship between them.
The film traces their interactions and their personal transformation from a chance encounter to a deeper relationship, as the theme of young love, unrequited feelings, and memories of school years becomes central to the story.
Madhan approaches With Love with a light, optimistic and emotional style typical of romantic comedies. The film uses nostalgic moments from the characters’ past to build an emotional connection with the viewer, and the dynamic between the present and memories feels like a natural part of the narrative. The shots and settings, especially in the scenes that recall school days and old feelings, are designed to emphasize both the warm atmosphere of the story, as well as its feel-good appeal.
