About Tere Ishk Mein
The film marks Dhanush's third collaboration with director Anand L. Rai after Raanjhanaa (2013) and Atrangi Re (2021). The trailer created a buzz on social media as a love story with a toxic lover leading the charge, a theme that has been in vogue in the Hindi film industry for a while.
In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote, "The lead actors, Dhanush and Kriti Sanon, playing characters named Shankar (God) and Mukti (salvation), do all they can to convey intensity and passion, but the mess they are called upon to sort out is too bloated to be wished away by their earnest efforts or washed away by the waters of the Ganga.
Tere Ishk Mein is the sort of movie where negotiations between human beings occur strictly via declamatory ultimatums. This is 'an A.R. Rahman musical.' That's a small mercy. While the score works, little else in the film is music. Tere Ishk Mein is a love story that is an advertisement that love can do without."
