The first official review for the highly anticipated Bollywood film 'Tere Ishk Mein' has finally dropped, sending waves of excitement through the fan communities of stars Dhanush and Kriti Sanon. Slated for a November 28, 2025 release, the movie is already being touted by early critics as a strong contender for the most impactful emotional love story of the year.
Early Rave Reviews and Star-Studded Praise
Leading the chorus of praise is prominent foreign critic Umair Sandhu, who did not hold back in his admiration for the project. He awarded the film a definitive 4-star rating and described it as a "wonderful love story" packed with "heart-wrenching moments, and a perfect climax." His review has been shared widely, building immense national attention for the film even before its theatrical debut.
Sandhu reserved special acclaim for the director and the music composer. He noted that Director Anand L. Rai has shown remarkable maturity in crafting a narrative that beautifully explores themes of love, pain, and sacrifice. He also highlighted the powerful impact of AR Rahman's background score, stating that the music breathes life into every emotional scene, making the experience profoundly moving for the audience.
A Spiritual Successor and Career-Best Performances
'Tere Ishk Mein' is generating a powerful buzz as a spiritual sequel to the 2013 cult classic 'Raanjhanaa', which was also directed by Anand L. Rai and featured music by A.R. Rahman. This connection has naturally amplified expectations. The fresh on-screen pairing of Dhanush and Kriti Sanon has been a major point of discussion, with their chemistry creating a stir since the first look was revealed.
According to the early review, both lead actors have delivered performances that rank among the finest in their respective careers. Umair Sandhu explicitly stated that their work in 'Tere Ishk Mein' is award-worthy. This is particularly significant for Kriti Sanon, as this marks her first film release of the year after 'Do Patti', further raising the stakes.
The Emotional Toll of Filming
Adding to the film's intense aura, Kriti Sanon recently opened up about the challenging shoot for the movie's climax. During the promotional events, she revealed that filming the climax and the emotionally charged scenes leading up to it was an arduous process. These sequences were shot over 5–6 consecutive days and were extremely demanding, taking a toll on her both physically and emotionally.
This revelation makes it clear that 'Tere Ishk Mein' is not a light-hearted romantic flick but a deep, intense drama that pushes its characters to their limits, promising a poignant and gripping cinematic journey.
