Aanand L Rai's Tere Ishk Mein, backed by Bhushan Kumar and featuring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon, is heading into release with a strong tailwind. The film has picked up remarkable momentum with advance bookings climbing steadily. Early trends point toward a possible remarkable opening, driven by the response to its promotional material. The film will be released in theatres on November 28.
On the censorship front, the process was smooth. The Central Board of Film Certification did not ask for any visual cuts and left the intense romantic and action sequences untouched. Only a dialogue featuring one word was modified. With that change incorporated, the film received a U/A 16+ certificate on November 24. The certificate also confirms a runtime of 169.17 minutes, which is equivalent to 2 hours, 49 minutes and 17 seconds.
While the teaser and trailer have connected well with audiences, and A.R. Rahman's music has added to the buzz. The songs have been trending across platforms and have played a big part in pushing the film's appeal across markets.
At the trailer launch event earlier this month, Dhanush praised the strong creative synergy they shared on set. The actor said the two developed their characters together and described Kriti as a "beautiful, talented and focused" co-star, calling the collaboration one of the most fulfilling experiences of the film. Dhanush shared, "I really do feel like we've made a beautiful film and I had such a beautiful talented and focused co-star. It was so beautiful creating it together. Shankar and Mukti, we created both of them together I feel and it was such a beautiful experience doing that."
Kriti Sanon spoke about the nuances of her character, Mukti, and shared how she connected with several aspects of the role. "There are some things that did connect though a lot of things does that Mukti does I wouldn't do but I think in the beginning there is a certain purity you know, she's almost naive."
"Where she believes in good, she believes in the good in people. That sometimes other people can't even see toh woh jab bolti hai ki m tumhe acha non violent insaan bana sakti hu Woh actually believe karti hai ki duniya change ho sakti hai log change kiye ja sakte hai Aur sab m koi na koi achayi hai. So I think that part is somewhere connected with," the actress added.
Gulshan Kumar, T-Series, and Colour Yellow present 'Tere Ishk Mein', produced by Aanand L Rai and Himanshu Sharma, produced by Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar. The film directed by Aanand L Rai and written by Himanshu Sharma and Neeraj Yadav, is an A.R. Rahman musical with lyrics by Irshad Kamil.
