Mumbai: The much-anticipated teaser of “Tere Ishk Mein”, directed by Aanand L. Rai, has taken the internet by storm. Actor Dhanush, who gave audiences the unforgettable Raanjhanaa back in 2013 with the same director, makes a powerful comeback in another emotionally charged role. This time, he is paired for the first time with Kriti Sanon, and together they don’t look like conventional lovers — they appear more like intense adversaries locked in passion and conflict.

Banaras Backdrop and Clashes of Love

Set against the sacred ghats and narrow lanes of Banaras, the teaser unfolds with a haunting mix of love, rebellion, and violence. Dhanush’s character is seen purifying himself with Ganga jal, while Kriti Sanon appears broken, rebellious, and fierce. The chemistry between them hints not at soft romance but at a turbulent journey of love entangled with vengeance.

A. R. Rahman’s Rock-Infused Score

The soul of the teaser lies in its music. After a long gap, maestro A. R. Rahman brings back a rock-infused soundscape, filled with electric guitars, pounding drums, and layered melodic textures. This raw, intense energy elevates the visuals and gives the teaser an uncompromisingly edgy feel. Critics are calling it Rahman’s bold re-imagination of rock, which intensifies the emotional gravity of the narrative.

Dhanush and Kriti: A First-Time Pairing

The Dhanush–Aanand L. Rai duo already holds a special place in Bollywood with Raanjhanaa, which redefined tragic romance in the last decade. On the other hand, Kriti Sanon, who proved her mettle with films like Mimi, joins Dhanush for the first time on screen. Interestingly, instead of appearing as a typical starry-eyed couple, the two come across as lovers at war, blurring the line between passion and rivalry. This unusual dynamic has already caught the audience’s imagination.

Release and Promotions

Tere Ishk Mein is slated for release on November 28, 2025, in both Hindi and Tamil. The teaser is also being attached to major theatrical releases like Kantara Chapter 1 and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari to ensure a big-screen promotional push.
