KATHMANDU: Aanand L. Rai’s Tere Ishk Mein delivers a powerful blend of passion, heartbreak and emotional turbulence, driven strongly by the performances of its lead pair — Dhanush and Kriti Sanon.

The film follows the fiery and complicated love story of Shankar and Mukti, unfolding through moments of tenderness, conflict and raw vulnerability.

Dhanush carries the film with an exceptionally layered performance, capturing the character’s emotional extremes with honesty and depth. Kriti Sanon complements him with a poised and heartfelt portrayal, adding weight to every shared frame.

The direction stays true to Rai’s signature style — a mix of grounded realism, intense romance and poetic visual storytelling.

While a few narrative beats feel familiar, the film maintains its grip through compelling character arcs, beautiful cinematography and a rich musical score that elevates key emotional sequences.

At nearly three hours, the film runs slightly long, yet its emotional core remains engaging.

The chemistry between the leads, combined with strong supporting performances, ensures the story leaves an impact.

Overall Verdict:
A stirring romantic drama that thrives on strong performances and memorable music.
Rating: 3.5/5
