The actor-singer took to social media to share a heartfelt note, thanking his fans and the audience for their unwavering love and support, which he credits for his remarkable success in 2025.
A Year of Triumphs Across Languages
Dhanush's 2025 was defined by a rare and impressive hat-trick of cinematic successes.

In his emotional post, Dhanush wrote, "Thank you for making 2025 truly unforgettable." He emphasized the significance of this achievement, stating, "Three films in three different languages and seeing each of them become a superhit has been a blessing I will cherish forever, and it was possible only because of your love and support."
The Three Pillars of a Phenomenal Year
The first success of the year came with the bilingual period drama 'Kuberaa', directed by Sekhar Kammula. Released theatrically on April 10, 2025, the film featured powerful performances by Nagarjuna, Rashmika Mandanna, and Jim Sarbh alongside Dhanush. It was shot simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil.

Dhanush capped off the year with the impactful Hindi romantic entertainer 'Tere Ishk Mein'. Released on November 28, 2025, and directed by Aanand L. Rai, the film co-starred Kriti Sanon. Serving as a spiritual sequel to the beloved "Raanjhanaa", it garnered Dhanush widespread appreciation for his nuanced performance.
