Tere Ishq Mein Fees: Dhanush to Kriti Sanon, Who got how much?
Tere Ishk Mein serves as a spiritual successor to the 2013 romantic drama Raanjhanaa. Set against a backdrop of passionate love and emotional upheaval the story unfolds around Flight Lieutenant Shankar Gurukkal and Mukti Beniwal portrayed by Dhanush and Kriti Sanon. The narrative follows Shankars intense devotion and the turbulent journey of love sacrifice and internal conflict that shapes their relationship. Supported by Prakash Raj Priyanshu Painyuli Tota Roy Chowdhury and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub the film blends dramatic storytelling with powerful performances and a strong musical foundation. Its emotional themes and relational depth resonate particularly with young audiences and those drawn to intense love stories.
Directed by Anand L Rai the film marks his third collaboration with Dhanush. The trailer generated excitement with its portrayal of deep emotional conflict and a toxic romance narrative that has become prominent in contemporary Hindi cinema. Critics have praised the conviction with which Dhanush and Kriti Sanon approach their roles capturing the film’s intense emotional core.
Despite Dhanushs strong presence in Tamil cinema the Tamil dubbed version of the film has collected only a little over 2.25 crore in the same five day period. This indicates that the films success is largely driven by its Hindi release with limited impact in southern markets.
