Dhanush starrer Tere Ishk Mein continues its powerful run at the box office, maintaining rock-steady collections in its second weekend. Despite Dhurandhar grabbing a big chunk of screens, Tere Ishk Mein has confidently entered the coveted 100-crore club with its combined Hindi and Tamil business touching Rs.104.94 crore.
Near-100 Crore in Hindi Belt Alone
In the Hindi belt, the film is inching very close to the 100-crore mark on its own merit. With an impressive Rs.97.93 crore net collection in Hindi, Tere Ishk Mein has shown strong momentum even in its second weekend, reflecting solid word of mouth and repeat viewership.
Global Collections Surpass ‘Kuberaa’

Overall, Tere Ishk Mein now stands at Rs.123.82 crore total collection, while its worldwide gross has reached Rs.145.38 crore, thereby surpassing the lifetime worldwide collections of Dhanush’s earlier hit Kuberaa (Rs.138.86 crore). This steady growth cements the film’s status as one of Dhanush’s biggest successes.
Beats the Lifetime Business of Cult Classic ‘Raanjhanaa’
With this performance, Tere Ishk Mein has officially beaten the lifetime collections of Dhanush’s cult classic Raanjhanaa. The Aanand L Rai directorial Raanjhanaa had earned Rs.87.26 crore at the worldwide box office, with Rs.60.35 crore net (Rs.77.37 crore gross) in India. In comparison, Tere Ishk Mein has moved well beyond those figures, proving its strong connect with today’s audience.
Audience Hunger for Dhanush’s Intense Emotional Performances
The box office trend clearly shows that the audience was eager to see Dhanush return to a space filled with intense emotions — love, rage, betrayal and vengeance. The love he received for Kundan in Raanjhanaa and now for Shankar in Tere Ishk Mein proves that Dhanush has a rare ability to disappear completely into emotionally conflicted characters, making each of them unforgettable on screen.
Mastery Over Emotion-Driven Romance-Drama Genre
Dhanush’s deep understanding of this emotion-heavy romantic-drama genre, combined with the outpouring of love from viewers, underlines the trust that audiences and netizens place in him. Whether it is Raanjhanaa or Tere Ishk Mein, viewers know that when Dhanush is at the centre of such stories, they can expect raw intensity, layered emotions and powerful character arcs.
Strong Word of Mouth Keeps the Film Going
Given the extremely positive word of mouth, Tere Ishk Mein is expected to continue with decent collections in the coming week as well. As the film keeps breaking records day after day, the sustained enthusiasm in theatres strongly indicates that the audience has thoroughly connected with both the story and its central performances.
Backed by Aanand L Rai’s Direction and AR Rahman’s Music
Directed by Aanand L Rai and further elevated by ए. आर. रहमान यांच्या इमर्सिव्ह साउंडट्रॅकने, Tere Ishk Mein becomes a complete cinematic experience on the big screen. Alongside Dhanush, the film also stars Kriti Sanon in a pivotal role and is currently running successfully in theatres, continuing its impressive box office journey.
