Tere Ishk Mein gets a decent start at the box office
The new romantic drama starring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon opened to a decent response on its first day. Early footfalls suggest a steady start, with audiences turning up in good numbers for evening and night shows in urban centres.
Day 1 buzz and audience reaction
Moviegoers appreciated the lead pair’s chemistry and the film’s soulful music. Many praised emotional sequences and the film’s production values, while a few viewers felt the pace could have been tighter. Overall word-of-mouth seems cautiously positive.
Box office snapshot
- Steady openings in multiplexes across metros and tier-1 cities.
- Single screens showed a mixed response, depending on local tastes and competing shows.
- Official numbers are yet to be released, but the film’s Day 1 performance is being described as decent rather than blockbuster.
Weekend outlook
If the word-of-mouth strengthens, the film has a good chance to pick up over the weekend. The chemistry between Dhanush and Kriti, plus the soundtrack, could pull family and youth audiences back to theatres. Much will depend on reviews and the competition over the next two days.
What worked and what could be a challenge
- Strengths: Strong leads, appealing music, and emotional moments that connect with family audiences.
- Challenges: Mixed critical reactions about pacing and the presence of other films could limit growth if word-of-mouth doesn’t improve.
For now, Tere Ishk Mein has given its makers a respectable start. Keep an eye on the weekend collections to see if the film turns a decent opening into sustained success.
