The trailer for the highly anticipated film Tere Ishk Mein, starring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon, has officially launched, generating considerable buzz online. Directed by Aanand L Rai, the film marks his third collaboration with Dhanush after Raanjhanaa and Atrangi Re. Tere Ishk Mein is slated to release in theaters on November 28, 2025, in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
The 3-minute 23-second trailer introduces Dhanush as Shiv, a Flight Lieutenant, suggesting a disciplined persona. However, the scene quickly shifts to Mukti, played by Kriti Sanon, who appears heartbroken. The trailer then unfolds their love story, showcasing both the good and bad phases of their relationship, beginning from their college days. It is a story filled with love, heartbreak, and obsession.
The narrative follows Shankar's violent and impulsive nature during college, where he frequently clashes with classmates. Mukti tries to stop him, leading to a complex dynamic between them. In one scene, Mukti expresses her desire to change Shankar, but he warns her that falling in love with him could lead to destructive consequences. Their romance blossoms through college corridors and bike rides, but takes a turn when Mukti chooses to marry someone else. Jilted, Shankar becomes vengeful, even promising to metaphorically "burn Delhi" in his heartbreak. As life progresses, Shankar becomes a pilot, while Mukti grapples with personal losses.
The trailer captures the intensity of their relationship, with a tense exchange where Mukti confronts Shankar, questioning his aggressive nature. Both actors effectively convey the deep emotions driving the story. The film seems to have intense emotions, reminiscent of '90s passionate love stories.
Many fans are calling Tere Ishk Mein a spiritual successor to Raanjhanaa, which also explored themes of unrequited love. Like Raanjhanaa, Tere Ishk Mein delves into the complexities of love, loss, and longing, with a potentially darker edge.
The film is produced by Aanand L Rai, Himanshu Sharma, Bhushan Kumar, and Krishan Kumar under the banner of Colour Yellow Productions. The music is composed by A.R. Rahman, with Himanshu Sharma and Neeraj Yadav credited for writing. Tushar Kanti Ray is the Director of Photography, and Hemal Kothari is the editor.

Another comment alluded to the film's release date, anticipating intense music. Some fans appreciated the fresh take on Dhanush's character, noting his career-oriented portrayal.
Tere Ishk Mein promises to be an emotionally charged love saga, exploring themes of love, heartbreak, and the consequences of obsession. The film also explores the aftereffects of a breakup, with Mukti turning to alcohol to cope, while Shankar becomes an air force pilot. With its intense narrative and strong performances, Tere Ishk Mein is poised to be a memorable addition to the romance genre.
