Actor Dhanush teamed up with director Aanand L. Rai for the third time in the romantic drama “Tere Ishq Mein”, starring Kriti Sanon. Despite a strong box office opening, trade experts say the film could have earned more in Telugu-speaking states. Here’s the breakdown:

🎬 1. Third Collaboration With Aanand L. Rai

· After hits like Raanjhanaa and Atrangi Re, dhanush and Rai joined forces again.

· The combination of their chemistry, storytelling, and star power drew audiences to theaters.

🎵 2. Superhit Album Boosts Hype

· The film’s music album received rave reviews and played a major role in attracting viewers.

· Songs contributed to the initial buzz and sold-out shows in multiple cities.

💰 3. Strong Opening Day Collection

· Hindi: Rs. 16.06 crore

· Tamil: Rs. 68 lakhs

· All-India Gross: Around Rs. 18 crores

· Net: Rs. 14.7 crores

· Despite the challenging market, the film performed very well on day one.

🏙 4. Performance in Hyderabad

· 50 out of 106 shows were fast-filling or sold out on friday night.

· For comparison, Andhra King had 46 sold-out/fast-filling shows out of 141.

· This shows strong demand for dhanush even outside his home market.

⚠️ 5. Missed telugu Simultaneous Release

· The makers announced the dubbed version “Amara Kavyam”, but it was not released simultaneously with the hindi version.

· Experts believe a simultaneous telugu release could have significantly increased box office collections in andhra pradesh and Telangana.

✅ Final Thought

“Tere Ishq Mein” had a flying start thanks to dhanush, Rai, and the music, but the lack of a simultaneous telugu release may have cost the film additional earnings in the south. A timely dubbed release could have maximized its pan-India potential.
