Kriti Sanon is currently wrapping up the final leg of Tere Ishk Mein in Mumbai, a film that many believe could mark a new phase in her career.
Coming off a successful 2024 awards season, Sanon has been taking on roles that push her range, and this romantic drama, co-starring Dhanush, is shaping up to be one of her more emotionally driven performances.

For Rai, Tere Ishk Mein carries personal stakes. Once praised for films like Tanu Weds Manu and Raanjhanaa, his recent outings haven’t quite landed. Zero didn’t resonate with audiences, Atrangi Re failed to generate much buzz on OTT, and Raksha Bandhan couldn’t revive his theatrical run.

If it clicks, it could do for her what Tanu Weds Manu Returns did for Kangana Ranaut. Still, Bollywood has seen many well-packaged films fall short recently.
The question is whether Tere Ishk Mein will buck that trend or become another missed opportunity. Either way, it’s a project worth watching as it nears release.
