The trailer of Tere Ishk Mein launched in Mumbai with overwhelming excitement, marking the return of Dhanush and Aanand L Rai’s much-loved creative partnership. The film, which also stars Kriti Sanon, is set for release on 28 November, and promises an emotionally charged, musically rich love story.
At the launch event, Dhanush opened up about what it feels like to reunite with director Aanand L Rai and writer-filmmaker Himanshu Sharma, comparing the collaboration to returning to a familiar, comforting home ground.
He said, “Working with Aanand and Himanshu is like going back to your hometown and playing on your familiar pitch—with the easiest bowler on the opposite side. They give me such beautiful roles, good challenges, and I keep returning to do these complicated love stories because I truly enjoy the experience.”
“The kind of films I do in the South are very different from what Aanand makes me do here, so I make the most of the opportunity and give my best. When it’s Aanand, I always feel I have to deliver something better than my best.”
“Collaborating again with A.R. Rahman sir is a blessing. He has graced our film with such genius music and background score. I don’t know whether it’s because of Aanand or because of me, but he always gives us beautiful songs.”
Talking about Bhushan Kumar he said, ““I don’t do Hindi films very often maybe once in a while. It must be difficult to mount a project with me, to match the numbers, but Bhushan sir backed this project so beautifully.”
“It’s a beautiful love story. We truly feel we’ve made a beautiful film. I had such a talented, focused co-star—Kriti Sanon. Creating Shankar and Mukti together was a wonderful experience.”
Directed by Aanand L Rai and produced by Bhushan Kumar, Tere Ishk Mein brings together a strong creative team that thrives on emotional storytelling. With A.R. Rahman composing the music, the film carries an added layer of depth and soul, something fans of the Dhanush–Rai–Rahman combination know to expect.
Tere Ishk Mein hits theatres on 28 November, and the buzz around the film is steadily rising. With powerhouse talent both on-screen and behind the scenes, the film is poised to be one of the most heartfelt love stories of the year.
