‘Tere Ishk Mein’ Ticket Sales Surge: Dhanush and Kriti Sanon Starrer Nears 50,000 Mark

New Delhi, November 27, 2025: The highly anticipated romantic drama, ‘Tere Ishk Mein,’ starring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon, is creating a significant pre-release buzz, with its advance ticket sales setting a promising tone for its opening day. With the theatrical release just days away on November 28th, the film has successfully crossed the 50,000 tickets mark nationwide, signalling a strong audience connection even before its premiere.

Numbers Paint a Promising Picture

The initial advance booking reports are highly encouraging for the makers, particularly director Aanand L Rai, who is reuniting with Dhanush after the critically acclaimed success of Raanjhanaa and Atrangi Re.

• Ticket Sales Spike: As of reports from Tuesday evening, the film has sold over 50,000 tickets for its opening day across the country.
• Gross Collection: This surge in pre-sales has resulted in a gross collection of approximately ₹65.59 lakh (excluding blocked seats). When accounting for distributor and corporate ‘block seats,’ the total gross for the opening day reportedly reaches an impressive figure of over ₹2.23 crore.
• Driving Force: The momentum is predominantly driven by the Hindi 2D version, with major multiplex chains like PVRINOX and Cinepolis contributing significantly to the numbers.

Pan-India Appeal and Star Power

The healthy advance booking figures suggest that the film is poised for a respectable, possibly double-digit opening at the box office. Trade analysts predict an opening day collection that could be a significant indicator of the film’s success.

The strong pre-release excitement can be attributed to several key factors:

• The Aanand L Rai-Dhanush Magic: Their past collaborations have established a brand of intense, emotionally rich love stories, which fans are eager to see recreated.
• The A.R. Rahman Musical Edge: The film’s music, composed by the maestro A.R. Rahman, has been a major draw, with songs already becoming popular and contributing to the overall hype.
• Fresh Pairing: The novel pairing of the versatile actor Dhanush with the popular Kriti Sanon has sparked curiosity and interest among the youth.

Setting the Stage for a Solid Start

With the romantic drama securing a U/A certificate with minimal cuts, the makers have shown confidence in a wide pan-India release across Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu languages. While the current numbers ensure a good initial footing, the real test will begin after the first day, relying heavily on positive word-of-mouth to sustain and elevate its box office run, especially since November 28th is a non-holiday release.

The current trend strongly indicates that ‘Tere Ishk Mein’ is not just relying on star power but also on the strength of its emotional and musical appeal, setting the stage for one of the most significant romantic releases of the year.
