Dhanush and Kriti Sanon are collaborating for the first time in Aanand L Rai’s Tere Ishk Mein. The director and Dhanush have previously teamed up on Raanjhanaa (2013) and Atrangi Re (2021). Recently, the Tamil actor was questioned about his attraction to roles like Kundan in Raanjhanaa and Shankar in Tere Ishk Mein. He shared that while Aanand’s films may appear simple, they present complex challenges to portray.
Dhanush discusses the complexities of roles like Kundan and Shankar in Tere Ishk Mein
During a press event in Delhi, the Idli Kadai star was queried about his interest in intense characters such as Kundan and now Shankar. His co-star Kriti assisted in translating the inquiry. Dhanush responded, “Aanand reaches out to me for these types of films. I asked him, why do you keep inviting me? He looked at my expression. Either Kriti or Aanand mentioned, you have a face that reflects a deep love loss.”

Kriti chimed in, “You have the visage of someone who’s been heartbroken.”
The actor continued, “That day, I returned home and kept examining my face. What is it about me that… I took it as a compliment. But honestly, these roles are quite demanding, just like Raanjhanaa or this one. It may seem straightforward; Raanjhanaa in particular appears simple, but it’s not. It’s a very intricate character to portray; a slight shift in approach, and you might end up disliking Kundan… so a lot of caution, extensive practice, and preparation were necessary because it’s a very nuanced role. Similarly, Shankar is easy to like, but he comes with his own set of challenges, which I can’t elaborate on right now.”
“When an actor goes through the script and identifies these kinds of challenges, he eagerly embraces it. Yes, this is what I’ve been looking for; I can really engage with it. I can’t just memorize lines, step in front of the camera, deliver them, and leave. I need to invest effort into it. Such scripts are not common. It’s not merely about aggression; it’s simply a well-crafted role with challenges,” Dhanush concluded.
Tere Ishk Mein is set to hit theaters on November 28. The score for the romantic drama has been composed by AR Rahman.
