Dhanush and Kriti Sanon are ready to return to the big screen with Tere Ishk Mein. The buzz around the film is growing fast. The romantic drama hits cinemas in less than 24 hours, and the early numbers point to a strong start. Bollywood is in the middle of a romance wave, and Aanand L. Rai’s new film seems set to join it.
The advance booking jump has surprised many. By Monday morning, the film had earned Rs 2.52 crore in advance sales, excluding blocked seats. It has already sold more than one lakh tickets across India. This gives the film a solid boost before its release on November 28, 2025. There is also no major Bollywood release on the same day, so the film will enjoy an open field.
Maharashtra is leading the charts with the highest bookings. Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu follow next. With one more day to go, trade experts expect the film to stay strong in advance sales.
Reddit REACTS As Tere Ishk Mein Performs Well In Advance Booking
The growing numbers have also sparked online debates. On Reddit, users are actively reacting to the film’s performance. One user shared the pre-sales figure wrote, “Tere ishq mein sold 1 Lakh + tickets and done 2.6 crore in advance booking.”
Read some online reactions to the post:
“The film will heavily rely on Hindi collections because there’s literally no buzz about this in Tamil Nadu, even though Dhanush is one of the most popular star here, but people don’t even know this movie is coming out.”
“Yes, today they opened the advance booking for Tamil Nadu, and it’s collected not even 50 lakhs.”
“Super Hit confirmed if WOM is good.”
“So it’s clear that only Toxic Romances and Hindutva films have box office prospects.”
“And misogyny as well. Ask Vanga, who is delivering blockbusters all the time.”
According to Sacnilk, the Hindi version of Tere Ishk Mein is far ahead of the Tamil version in advance booking. The film is made mainly for Hindi audiences and promoted heavily in the Hindi belt. The reunion of Dhanush and Aanand L Rai, along with AR Rahman’s music and the strong teaser, has also helped.
The Tamil version is slower. It has had less promotion, fewer shows and faces tough competition from other Tamil releases. The interest in a dubbed version is also lower in the Tamil market.
About Dhanush And Kriti Sanon Starrer
Tere Ishk Mein follows the story of Shankar, played by Dhanush. He is a hot-headed and emotional young man who falls in love with Mukti, played by Kriti Sanon, during their college days. Their romance begins early, but everything changes when Mukti decides to marry someone else. The film shows Shankar’s heartbreak, his anger, and the impact of their incomplete love. Aanand L Rai brings back the emotional tone of Raanjhanaa, but with a modern touch for younger viewers. The film also includes strong action scenes.
The film is made on a budget of Rs 50–75 crore. Prakash Raj also plays an important role. The CBFC has cleared the film with a U/A 16+ certificate. There are no visual cuts, but one abusive word in a long scene has been replaced. Anti-smoking warnings and blurred alcohol labels have been added as required.
Tere Ishk Mein releases in cinemas on November 28, 2025. All eyes now turn to its opening day numbers.
