Directed by Girish AD of Super Sharanya fame, the film stars Naslen K. Gafoor, Mamitha Baiju, Sangeeth Prathap, and Shyam Mohan in pivotal roles.

Anandu Suresh of The Indian Express gave the movie 3.5 stars and wrote in his review, “Similar to Girish AD’s Thanneer Mathan Dinangal and Super Sharanya, this Naslen, Mamitha Baiju-starrer too effectively employs situational and observational comedy. Yet, Girish ensures that Premalu stands apart from his previous works.”

Premalu also garnered huge praise from celebrities from other film industries. SS Rajamouli praised the film to the moon and said, “It is with jealousy and pain that I admit the Malayalam film industry produces better actors. In this film too, they did a fantastic job.” Rajamouli’s son SS Karthikeya distributed the Telugu version of the movie, which made a significant mark at the box office.
