After clearing the air that the film has nothing to do with director Yograj, he flooded the viewers with a special video teaser which introduced the lead pair.

This weekend, the film is finally up for release and the lead pair, Neettoo and Naveen Krishna, are very excited about it.

Speaking to Metrolife about their experience in the movie, Neettoo says that she finally got to break her tomboy image through this film.

 “I literally have butterflies in my stomach. I haven’t had a release in a long time and was waiting for Yogaraj... to hit the screens because the movie is really worth a watch and I am sure the audience will like this new change in me,” says Neettoo, who plays a homely character who grows up in an ashram.

Naveen, on the other hand, plays a role of an astrologer who uses psychology to predict the future.

But when he meets the girl of his dreams, he realises that life has a whole new plan for him. “People will expect to see me in the Dhimaku style and they will not be disappointed. I will still have my trademark dialogue delivery but the style will be very different,” says Naveen, who has also co-written the screenplay and dialogues.

With Naveen in the film, one generally expects comedy. And the promising actor says that there will be subtle humour in the film.

“The story is a very simple one but it is the elements that make ‘Yogaraj’ stand out, making it a complete paisa vasool film,” says Naveen, while Neettoo adds, “On the outset, the film may seem racy, funny and romantic but I believe that Yogaraj...but will answer a lot of questions about life and beliefs.”

With so much being said about their onscreen chemistry, Neettoo says that the credit goes to the director.

“In fact, we have got many offers to work together. Directors say that there is a freshness that we bring to the screen,” she says. So will the pair work together again? “Definitely. Naveen is a wonderful actor and it would be great working with him in some more films,” she says.
