Love triumphs again at the box office! Kriti Sanon and Dhanush’s latest romantic drama Tere Ishk Mein is striking all the right chords with audiences across India. With no solid competition until Dhurandhar makes its grand entry on December 5, 2025, this emotional romance is fully capitalizing on its dream run. The film has now climbed the charts to become the fifth highest-grossing romantic movie of the year. But here’s where it gets even more interesting — the early numbers from its fourth day are revealing a story worth talking about.
Monday blues? Not for Tere Ishk Mein!
After a spellbinding opening weekend that exceeded everyone’s expectations, many expected a usual Monday dip. However, director Aanand L. Rai’s creation still managed to hold its ground remarkably well. Based on early predictions, Tere Ishk Mein earned between 9 and 10 crores on Day 4, marking a controlled decline of about 37–43% compared to its Friday opening of 15.81 crores.
With this steady performance, the total four-day box office collection is estimated to stand at around 62.20–63.20 crores net. Clearly, Kriti and Dhanush’s chemistry continues to rule the silver screens. The major question now is — can it maintain this strong momentum once Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar releases on Friday?
Here’s the day-wise breakdown so far:
- Day 1: 15.81 crores
- Day 2: 17.32 crores
- Day 3: 20.07 crores
- Day 4: 9–10 crores (estimated)
Total: 62.20–63.20 crores (approx.)
Beating the competition — three films down!
Despite a predictable Monday slowdown, Tere Ishk Mein continues its winning streak. In just four days, it has already outperformed three other romantic hits of 2025 — Param Sundari, Metro In Dino, and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari. Climbing to the fifth spot among this year's romantic releases is no small feat — especially when you consider how crowded the genre has been.

What makes this film connect so deeply?
Maybe it’s the music. Maybe it’s the chemistry. Or perhaps, as some critics argue, it’s the nostalgia that films like Tere Ishk Mein evoke — reminding viewers of the grand romances of the early 2010s. Either way, this success story is stirring debate among film fans. Has Bollywood found its next big romantic benchmark, or is the box office performance a reflection of limited competition at the moment?
And this is the part most people miss — the film still has plenty of breathing room before Dhurandhar arrives. If audience word-of-mouth remains strong, it might just climb another spot or two on the list in the coming days.
So what do you think — is Tere Ishk Mein truly setting new romantic standards, or simply benefitting from perfect timing? Drop your thoughts in the comments — because this discussion is just getting started!
