MOVIE REVIEW

Tere Ishk Mein
Starring: Dhanush, Kriti Sanon, Prakash Raj
Director: Aanand L Rai
Music Directors: AR Rahman

A spiritual sequel to the 2013 hit Raanjhana, Tere Ishk Mein lacks the earlier film’s emotional poignancy but it does have raw, powerful moments which will keep you riveted.

In fact, those who love emotionally charged love dramas will be willing to ignore the many flaws—like a far-fetched and convoluted plot, inconsistencies in writing, and melodrama in places.

The evaluation of a grounded Air Force officer, named Shankar (Dhanush), by psychologist Mukti (Kriti Sanon) triggers memories of their turbulent past—their intense college romance, Mukti’s attempt to reform his aggression, and the heartbreak that follows.

The performances are the highlight of Tere Ishk Mein. As the aggressive and passionate Shankar, Dhanush nails it. Kriti lights up the screen, but what is better, she brings nuance and gravitas to her difficult role. Mohammad Zeeshan Ayyub in a cameo and Prakash Raj, as Dhanush’s long suffering father, lend solid support.

AR Rahman’s music works in parts, the standouts being the title track and the Sufi track To sum up, you can watch Tere Ishk Mein mainly for Dhanush’s intense act. But you will have to overlook his somewhat jarring Hindi diction to truly enjoy his performance.
