Dhanush-Kriti Sanon’s Tere Ishk Mein Surges Past Rs 71 Crore

Dhanush and Kriti Sanon’s romantic drama “Tere Ishk Mein” continues its impressive run at the box office, minting Rs 10.25 crore on its fifth day. The Aanand L Rai directorial showed remarkable growth on Tuesday, climbing from Monday’s collection of Rs 8.75 crore. This upward momentum propelled the film’s cumulative total to Rs 71 crore within just five days of release, indicating strong audience reception despite mixed critical reviews.

Strong Opening Weekend Performance

The film’s trajectory has been nothing short of impressive, beginning with a robust Rs 16 crore opening day. The collection surged to Rs 17 crore on Saturday, followed by an even stronger Rs 19 crore on Sunday. This steady growth continued as the film maintained occupancy rates of 24.93 percent on Tuesday, demonstrating sustained viewer interest and positive word-of-mouth.

Critical Reception and Technical Strengths

While critics gave the film mixed reviews, with Times Now awarding it 2.5 stars, the response highlighted both strengths and weaknesses. The performances by Dhanush and Kriti Sanon earned praise for their power and intensity, while AR Rahman’s music composition garnered appreciation. However, critics pointed out pacing issues and screenplay problems that hindered the film’s emotional impact, noting that despite aiming for an intense romantic drama, it failed to achieve the desired immersive experience.

The film’s ability to maintain strong collections indicates that audiences are connecting with the lead performances and music, even if critics felt the execution fell short. With this momentum, “Tere Ishk Mein” appears positioned for a successful theatrical run.
