Bollywood stars Dhanush and Kriti Sanon are all set to return to the big screen with their upcoming romantic drama, Tere Ishk Mein. Directed by Aanand L Rai, the film is scheduled to release in theatres on November 28, 2025. The movie is already creating buzz, especially as it marks another exciting collaboration between the director and Dhanush, after the much-loved Raanjhanaa.
Filming Update: From Delhi to Benaras
The cast and crew of Tere Ishk Mein recently wrapped up a shooting schedule in Delhi. Now, they’ve moved to Benaras (Varanasi) to film a crucial part of the movie. Interestingly, Varanasi is the same city where Dhanush shot Raanjhanaa in 2013, a film that brought him widespread praise and connected deeply with audiences.
Director Aanand L Rai shared glimpses from the sets in Varanasi on social media. He wrote, “Lights. Camera. Banaras. Duniya wahi, kahaani nayi… @aanandlrai ke andaaz mein. From the #WorldOfRaanjhanaa – #TereIshkMeinnow filming!” His caption hints that Tere Ishk Mein is linked to the emotional world of Raanjhanaa, though with a brand-new story and characters.
Behind the Scenes in Varanasi
The director, actors, and crew were seen exploring the ghats and streets of Varanasi. Some behind-the-scenes moments were shared online, giving fans a sneak peek at the vibe and energy on set. The scenes being filmed here are said to be significant to the plot, adding emotional layers to the story.
Third Collaboration: Aanand L Rai and Dhanush
Tere Ishk Mein is the third time Dhanush and Aanand L Rai are working together. The director shared his thoughts on the film, saying it’s not a sequel but shares the heart and spirit of Raanjhanaa. He added, “It comes from the world of Raanjhanaa. It’s more of an expansion than an extension. The story dives deeper emotionally but introduces a fresh narrative.”
Fans are excited to see Dhanush return to a role that blends raw emotion with romance, something he nailed in Raanjhanaa.
Kriti Sanon’s Powerful New Role
Kriti Sanon’s first look from the movie was unveiled earlier, where she plays a character named Mukti. The short teaser video introduced her as a strong and mysterious woman. Her intense avatar and powerful expressions have already grabbed attention, and fans are eager to see more of her role in this passionate love story.
AR Rahman Returns with Soulful Music
The film’s music is being composed by AR Rahman, adding another exciting element to the project. Aanand L Rai shared how important music is to his films. He said, “Whenever I have a powerful story to tell, I look for strong collaborators. Dhanush is someone I deeply trust, and AR Rahman sir is another pillar. I can’t make a film like this alone – it’s the teamwork that creates magic.”
With such a stellar combination of talent – Dhanush, Kriti Sanon, Aanand L Rai, and AR Rahman – Tere Ishk Mein is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated Bollywood movies of 2025.
