Endukante Premanta (transl. Because It's Love) is a 2012 Indian Telugu-language fantasy romantic comedy film written and directed by A. Karunakaran. Produced by Sravanthi Ravi Kishore, the film stars Ram Pothineni and Tamannaah Bhatia.[2] It features music scored by G. V. Prakash Kumar and dialogues by Kona Venkat.[3] The film was released theatrically on 8 June 2012.

The film deals with love between two souls across two different eras. Both Ram and Tamannaah play dual roles in the film, with each of those pairs of roles set in 1980 and 2012, respectively.[4] This film's plot is inspired by the American film Just like Heaven (2005).[5] Endukante Premanta was simultaneously shot in Tamil as Yen Endral Kadhal Enben (transl. Because I'II Say It's Love), though the Tamil version never saw a theatrical release.[6][7]
