After Kriti Sanon, Celina Jaitly faces backlash over her outfit at a Raksha Bandhan event: 'Repeating the same mistake!'

<p>Bollywood star Kriti Sanon seems unfazed amid the controversy around her attire in a recent Raksha Bandhan advertisement. Kriti, in fact, marked the special day by sharing a photo with her sister, Nupur Sanon, and even took a subtle yet sharp dig at the trolls who have been policing her about her outfit.</p><h2>Kriti's Rakhi gives a befitting response to trolls</h2><p>In her Raksha Bandhan post, Kriti chose to share only a photo of her and her sister Nupur Sanon’s hands as the two showed their respective Rakhis. The picture shows the sisters holding hands. Kriti refrained from showing their outfits, seemingly choosing not to add fuel to the ongoing debate. Instead, her caption spoke about her sentiments around the festival.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>She also took a jibe at the trolls and made it clear that she was focusing on her relationship with her sister on the special day instead of paying heed to the social media chatter. She wrote in the caption, "While the Rakhi fashion committee is still in session, we’re focusing on what really matters. Happy Rakhi to all."</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Kriti's Rakhi gives a befitting response to trolls In her Raksha Bandhan post, Kriti chose to share only a photo of her and her sister Nupur Sanon’s hands as the two showed their respective Rakhis. The picture shows the sisters holding hands. Kriti refrained from showing their outfits, seemingly choosing not to add fuel to the ongoing debate. Instead, her caption spoke about her sentiments around the festival. She also took a jibe at the trolls and made it clear that she was focusing on her relationship with her sister on the special day instead of paying heed to the social media chatter. She wrote in the caption, "While the Rakhi fashion committee is still in session, we’re focusing on what really matters. Happy Rakhi to all."

<p>Days after sparking controversy over her remark on Kriti Sanon's jewellery brand campaign, BJP MP and actor Kangana Ranaut is back, making new statements. This time, the <i>Queen </i>star appeared to react to Sanon while speaking about Raksha Bandhan celebrations, saying that women are free to wear whatever they want. Kangana's previous remark about the <i>Cocktail 2</i> actress and questioning her about her outfit in the Rakhi ad has stirred debate online.&nbsp;</p><h2>Kangana Ranaut takes another swipe at Kriti Sanon</h2><p>On August 26, Kangana Ranaut appeared on Sudhir Chaudhary's prime-time show, DECODE. During the conversation, Sudhir Chaudhary questioned her bikini remark about Kriti Sanon and asked about the broader debate over women's choice of clothing. Ranaut said her comments were not a personal attack on Sanon.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/kriti-sanon-s-raksha-bandhan-ad-removed-after-backlash-over-cultural-sentiments-jewellery-brand-issues-statement-1787728271120"><strong>Kriti Sanon's ad removed after backlash over cultural sentiments</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>She replied, saying, "<i>Jis tarah ki filmon mein hum unhe dekhte hain, unhe kaun rok raha hai kuch pehnne se? Kis ne unhe roka hai, kis ko kya padi hai?</i>" (The way she dresses in her films, who has stopped her from wearing anything she wants? I don't think anybody has anything to do with her choice of outfits)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Concluding her remarks, the BJP MP said, "A woman can wear whatever she wants to wear on Raksha Bandhan."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Further, Ranaut argues that an individual's personal choices cannot always be separated from the cultural context in which they are made. She stated, "How can one have such a foolish way of thinking? The aesthetic expression of any civilisation is its festival."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In response to the controversy surrounding the campaign's withdrawal, Kangana claimed that the outfit was only a small part of the problem. “The bralette was a very small part, the bigger concern was that the advertisement did not feature several elements traditionally associated with Raksha Bandhan celebrations. Like, where are the parents? Where is the home? There was no halwa, puri, God, tilak, akshat, incense or lamp—nothing,” she said.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/traditions-are-not-in-her-neckline-kriti-sanon-reacts-to-backlash-over-raksha-bandhan-ad-1787653636559"><strong>Kriti Sanon reacts to backlash over Raksha Bandhan ad</strong></a></p><h2>Kriti Sanon Raksha Bandhan ad controversy</h2><p>Actor Kriti Sanon appeared in a Raksha Bandhan promotional campaign for the jewellery brand GIVA.

Days after her controversial remarks on Kriti Sanon’s jewellery-brand outfit buzz, Kangana Ranaut made a shocking statement, saying that women are free to wear whatever they choose on Raksha Bandhan.

Days after sparking controversy over her remark on Kriti Sanon's jewellery brand campaign, BJP MP and actor Kangana Ranaut is back, making new statements. This time, the Queen star appeared to react to Sanon while speaking about Raksha Bandhan celebrations, saying that women are free to wear whatever they want. Kangana's previous remark about the Cocktail 2 actress and questioning her about her outfit in the Rakhi ad has stirred debate online. Kangana Ranaut takes another swipe at Kriti Sanon On August 26, Kangana Ranaut appeared on Sudhir Chaudhary's prime-time show, DECODE. During the conversation, Sudhir Chaudhary questioned her bikini remark about Kriti Sanon and asked about the broader debate over women's choice of clothing. Ranaut said her comments were not a personal attack on Sanon. Also Read: Kriti Sanon's ad removed after backlash over cultural sentiments She replied, saying, "Jis tarah ki filmon mein hum unhe dekhte hain, unhe kaun rok raha hai kuch pehnne se? Kis ne unhe roka hai, kis ko kya padi hai?" (The way she dresses in her films, who has stopped her from wearing anything she wants? I don't think anybody has anything to do with her choice of outfits) Concluding her remarks, the BJP MP said, "A woman can wear whatever she wants to wear on Raksha Bandhan." Further, Ranaut argues that an individual's personal choices cannot always be separated from the cultural context in which they are made. She stated, "How can one have such a foolish way of thinking? The aesthetic expression of any civilisation is its festival." In response to the controversy surrounding the campaign's withdrawal, Kangana claimed that the outfit was only a small part of the problem. “The bralette was a very small part, the bigger concern was that the advertisement did not feature several elements traditionally associated with Raksha Bandhan celebrations. Like, where are the parents? Where is the home? There was no halwa, puri, God, tilak, akshat, incense or lamp—nothing,” she said.

Others questioned a sequence in which the actor ties a rakhi to a pet dog.

Kriti reacts to the backlash On Tuesday, Kriti took to her Instagram Story to share a strong response on the matter. "The essence of festivals is not in the clothes you wear, it is in the emotions and meaning you hold for the traditions. Rakshabandhan is a bond of protection. My sister and I tie rakhi to each other. We know we can protect each other no less than a brother would have. We pray for each other's health, happiness & long life," she said.

<h3>Alia Bhatt's ‘Kanyadaan' Ad</h3><p>In 2021, a bridal ad featuring Alia Bhatt sparked controversy for questioning the tradition of 'Kanyadaan', a Hindu wedding ritual where parents symbolically give their daughter away to the groom. For those who haven't seen it, the ad is set in a Hindu wedding mandap where Alia, along with her to-be husband and her family- her grandmother, father and mother- is getting ready for the ceremony. In the video, Alia objects to the practice of Kanyadaan. She questions why she was always treated as an outsider and a temporary member of the family despite being loved so much.</p>

<p>"Am I something to be donated? Why only Kanyadaan?" she asks in the ad. This ad drew massive backlash at the time, with people saying it was questioning a centuries-old tradition.</p><h3>Tanishq's interfaith Wedding Campaign</h3><p>In 2020, the jewellery brand was forced to pull down its advertisement following severe backlash. The ad depicted a Muslim mother-in-law organising a baby shower for her Hindu daughter-in-law, with a message of communal harmony. However, it angered a section of people, who accused the brand of promoting 'love jihad'. This ad was pulled down from the social media platforms.&nbsp;</p>

<h3>Sabyasachi's Mangalsutra Campaign</h3><p>In 2021, &nbsp;celebrity-favourite designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee was forced to withdraw his Mangalsutra campaign after it triggered massive outrage online. The campaign featured models wearing the brand's Mangalsutra collection in intimate poses, including shirtless male models that many felt sexualized a symbol of Hindu marriage. The ad drew massive backlash from political figures, who threatened to take legal action against the brand.</p><h3>Dabur same-sex Karva Chauth Campaign</h3><p>In 2021, consumer goods major Dabur found itself in the middle of the controversy after it released an advertisement showing a same-sex couple celebrating &nbsp;Karva Chauth. Soon after, it courted massive backlash; Dabur India issued an apology, and the advertisement was taken down.</p>

<p>The rumours around Kriti Sanon and Kabir Bahia's breakup intensified after the businessman was photographed with another woman. The duo has reportedly been linked with each other since the two shared pictures from the same holiday locations.</p>

Did Kriti Sanon and Kabir Bahia break up? Here's the truth about the viral photo

<p>The 2012 film Cocktail, directed by Homi Adajania, received mixed responses from critics as well as at the box office on its release. The film’s story was termed problematic by some, where a man-child first has a passionate romance with a short-skirt-wearing, trouble-maker modern girl and then falls deeply in love with a homely girl, whom his mother approves of. Over the years, a certain age group gave the film a cult status. While Cocktail wasn’t anything great to write home about, it should be credited for giving great music, by Pritam, and presenting Deepika Padukone in a completely different avatar. Deepika was splendid in the film as the problematic Veronica, who has a heart of gold, even though she puts up an act of nonchalance all the time. In most scenes, Deepika shone more than her co-stars, Saif Ali Khan and debutant Diana Penty. More than a decade later, Adajania is back with a spiritual sequel, Cocktail 2, which also centres around three individuals entangled in love and complications. The original Cocktail was middling in any case, but the sequel makes the original look superior in terms of storytelling.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The first film was written by Imtiaz Ali, who is known to present women as strong individuals, as saviours of problematic men. Cocktail 2 has Luv Ranjan and Tarun Jain as writers. Ranjan usually presents women as selfish, controlling and conniving and men as the henpecked, innocent beings. So you can easily understand how Cocktail 2 pans out.</p><h2>What’s the plot of Cocktail 2</h2><p>Diya (Rashmika Mandanna) and Kunal (Shahid Kapoor) have been together for over a decade. Successful and comfortable with each other as live-in partners, they don't want to take the plunge and marry just because society wants a label on their relationship. As the marriage season dons upon Delhi, the two decide to escape questions about their plans to marry and head to Italy for a long vacation. There, they meet Ally(Kriti Sanon), Diya’s old friend from Uni days, who decides to be the third wheel in the relationship and show them around Italy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ally is a person who gets bored easily, we are told. She is also constantly dressed for the beach and is very self-aware of her hotness. At one point, she admits that no man can ever resist her advances. That makes her friend, the mildly suspicious and very controlling Diya, hatch a plan to test her man and his loyalty for her. She asks Ally to seduce him to check his response. Ally mentions that the plan is risky, but Diya insists on it. What follows is a bizarre, long-drawn process of the two women pushing the man to the brink, just to test his loyalty to his longtime partner.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Things obviously get complicated as love happens by chance amid all the flirting and seducing, but relationships and friendships get complicated.</p>

<h2>What works</h2><p>Shot in parts of Italy, Cocktail 2 is visually stunning. Shot by cinematographer Santhana Krishnan Ravichandran, who, with his frames, sets the vibe of Italian summer well. A large part of the film has Kunal and Ally soaking in the sun on the beach, conversing and getting to know each other. Sicily comes alive in each frame where the story is set in the first half. Styled by Anaita Shroff Adajania, the film has the leads looking stunning, especially Kriti Sanon.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Much like the first film, Cocktail 2 is beutiful songs by Pritam, including a love ballad by Arijit Singh.</p><h2>What does not work</h2><p>The plot is wafer-thin and stretched over 150 minutes. It some point, one gets impatient at their trio’s first-world problems of infertility and relationship issues. The film labels the women, like most Luv Ranjan-written films do. The bohemian, hot girl falls for the man while seducing him just for fun. So much so that she is ready to break his marriage. The girlfriend is bossy and controlling everything, and constantly doubting her man, even though he hasn’t given her any reasons to feel that way. The man is shown to be henpecked, behaving like a doormat to his girlfriend. From the first glimpse of the three characters, you know their character traits.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Among the actors, Kriti Sanon gets the maximum scope to perform. It's not a very well-written script in any case, but Sanon delivers her flawed character of Ally in most parts of the film. The other parts, she is busy imitating Deepika from the original film. Rashmika’s strong accent gets in the way of her delivering a solid performance. Among the three leads, Shahid Kapoor is perhaps the most talented and seasoned. But the makers hardly make him perform to his best. In the greater part of the film, Shahid is shown to be a quiet observer who silently obeys his lady love. When you have an actor of Shahid’s calibre in the film, why waste him playing someone so quiet?</p>

<h2>Final Verdict</h2><p>Cocktail 2 aims to cater to the younger generation. Perhaps the problems and complexities shown in the film are more identifiable to the young audience. Unfortunately, the writer of this review does not belong to that age group. While the film attempts to highlight modern dar friendships and relationships, in times of social media, it fails to connect with a very poorly written story. The actors are all good, perform to their parts and look stunning on screen, but that doesn't alleviate a very mediocre film.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When the first teaser of Cocktail 2 had come out, there were rumours that the story would have Rashmika cheating on Shahid with Kriti. Had they actually explored that angle, that plot would have worked better.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Cocktail 2 is running in theatres across the country.</p>

Cocktail 2, directed by Homi Adajania, has Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna playing bossy women to a very henpecked Shahid Kapoor. The film's wafer thin plot dampens the performances by the leads.

The 2012 film Cocktail, directed by Homi Adajania, received mixed responses from critics as well as at the box office on its release. The film’s story was termed problematic by some, where a man-child first has a passionate romance with a short-skirt-wearing, trouble-maker modern girl and then falls deeply in love with a homely girl, whom his mother approves of. Over the years, a certain age group gave the film a cult status. While Cocktail wasn’t anything great to write home about, it should be credited for giving great music, by Pritam, and presenting Deepika Padukone in a completely different avatar. Deepika was splendid in the film as the problematic Veronica, who has a heart of gold, even though she puts up an act of nonchalance all the time. In most scenes, Deepika shone more than her co-stars, Saif Ali Khan and debutant Diana Penty. More than a decade later, Adajania is back with a spiritual sequel, Cocktail 2, which also centres around three individuals entangled in love and complications. The original Cocktail was middling in any case, but the sequel makes the original look superior in terms of storytelling. The first film was written by Imtiaz Ali, who is known to present women as strong individuals, as saviours of problematic men. Cocktail 2 has Luv Ranjan and Tarun Jain as writers. Ranjan usually presents women as selfish, controlling and conniving and men as the henpecked, innocent beings. So you can easily understand how Cocktail 2 pans out. What’s the plot of Cocktail 2 Diya (Rashmika Mandanna) and Kunal (Shahid Kapoor) have been together for over a decade. Successful and comfortable with each other as live-in partners, they don't want to take the plunge and marry just because society wants a label on their relationship. As the marriage season dons upon Delhi, the two decide to escape questions about their plans to marry and head to Italy for a long vacation. There, they meet Ally(Kriti Sanon), Diya’s old friend from Uni days, who decides to be the third wheel in the relationship and show them around Italy. Ally is a person who gets bored easily, we are told. She is also constantly dressed for the beach and is very self-aware of her hotness. At one point, she admits that no man can ever resist her advances. That makes her friend, the mildly suspicious and very controlling Diya, hatch a plan to test her man and his loyalty for her. She asks Ally to seduce him to check his response. Ally mentions that the plan is risky, but Diya insists on it. What follows is a bizarre, long-drawn process of the two women pushing the man to the brink, just to test his loyalty to his longtime partner. Things obviously get complicated as love happens by chance amid all the flirting and seducing, but relationships and friendships get complicated.

<p>Cocktail 2, directed by Homi Adajania, has Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna playing bossy women to a very henpecked Shahid Kapoor. The film's wafer thin plot dampens the performances by the leads.</p>

<p>Speaking about the vision set by director Homi Adajania, Karan added, “The brief was clear and uncompromising. Super lean. Super toned. Abs that actually show on camera. Strength that reads through the screen. But this was the real challenge — don’t lose the glow. Don’t hollow out the face. The director needed Ally to look fit and luminous. Too lean and you lose that. Too soft and you miss the mark. That’s the fine line we walked. Every. Single. Week.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He also detailed the training approach that helped achieve the desired look. “The kind of training we did — with her nutrition, with her sleep, with her food — we included a lot of incline walks. She was eating a high-protein diet. We were in a sort of deficit, but with a lot of strength training and basically staying active throughout the day. It was a challenge, but as you can see, she pulled it off,” he said.</p>

Directed by Homi Adajania, Cocktail 2 stars Kriti Sanon alongside Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna. The film serves as a spiritual successor to the 2012 hit Cocktail, which featured Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty in lead roles.

Kriti Sanon’s striking transformation in the recently unveiled Cocktail 2 trailer has become one of the biggest talking points among audiences. From her screen presence to her toned physique, fans have been applauding the actor’s commitment to bringing her character, Ally, to life. Now, fitness trainer Karan Sawhney has offered a glimpse into the intense journey behind the transformation. Sharing a behind-the-scenes video chronicling Kriti’s preparation for the film, Karan revealed that the objective extended beyond fitness and was rooted in fulfilling a specific creative vision for the character. “When @kritisanon and I first had a chat, we didn’t just have a fitness goal, we had a director’s vision to bring to life,” he wrote. According to Karan, the role demanded a new level of dedication from Kriti, especially as Cocktail 2 required her to perform her first-ever bikini scene. He emphasized that the challenge was not only physical but also required significant mental and emotional commitment. “She was stepping into the role of Ally in Cocktail 2. And with that came something that pushed her harder than anything before — her first ever bikini scene. That’s not just a physical challenge. That’s mental. That’s emotional. That’s showing up every single day even when you don’t feel like it,” he shared. Karan further explained that the filmmakers wanted Kriti to appear lean, strong and toned while maintaining a healthy, radiant appearance. “She had to be fit and lean, not size zero,” he said.

The film’s problematic story glorifies toxicity to no end. The man needs therapy, but his rage is justified because the girl he fell in love with led him on. The girl is self-obsesse &nbsp; and breaks into long monologues often, analysing her case study- Shankar- almost blind in not understanding that she is leading him on. All the time. At one point, Shankar calls Mukti - Murkh Aurat- foolish woman, and she truly is. She is enabling him to behave a certain way, and when he gets a vision in life, all thanks to her father’s taunt, she wants to take credit for the transformation.''</p>

Directed by Aanand L. Rai, the movie revolves around Mukti (Sania), a PhD student at Delhi University, who chooses Shankar (Dhanush) as her subject for her thesis. Things take a different turn, and the two get into a complicated love drama.

Kriti Sanon and Dhanush’s film Tere Ishk Mein has become a topic of discussion among PhD students across social media. But why? Because of a scene in which Kriti’s character, Mukti Beniwal, claims to have submitted a whopping 2,200-page thesis. This has led many to question the film’s academic accuracy. Released on November 28, the movie, directed by Aanand L Rai, features Dhanush and Kriti in a confused love story. Months after its theatrical release, the movie is now available on Netflix. Why are PhD students calling out Sanon and Dhanush’s movie over the 2,200-page thesis? On January 23, the love saga was released on Netflix, and within a few days, several PhD students began making jokes about the movie over a scene where Kriti’s character talks about submitting a 2,200-page thesis. This scene has sparked a huge conversation among netizens, who have been questioning the academic accuracy shown in the film. Expressing disbelief over the 2,000-page thesis, many questioned how the movie had turned Phd into a joke. Speaking about cinematic liberty, another X user asked the makers to be a bit more realistic. A 2,200-page-long thesis is nearly ten times longer than the average thesis submitted by a PhD student.

<p>Things are very easy in Aanand L Rai’s world. A local goon who doesn’t know the full form of UPSC in one scene can clear the prelims in the next. A man who is in and out of jail for creating a ruckus on campus can become one of the bravest officers of the Indian Air Force. A raging alcoholic, who is popping anxiety pills by the hour, is a counsellor for the Defence forces (god save our soldiers from such counsellors) and given the task to counsel a problematic officer at the Indo-China border, while she is herself 9 months pregnant. Call it easy or indulgence, but Rai’s latest film <i>Tere Ishk Mein-</i> starring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon- has plenty of such obscure stuff decorating a very problematic story. The film celebrates toxicity like a festival, and glorifies pain and suffering in the name of love.</p><h2>What’s the plot of Tere Ishk Mein?</h2><p>If the film's trailer didn’t already warn you about all the emotional upheaval the two lead characters go through, here’s what writers Himanshu Sharma and Neeraj Yadav are trying to tell. Mukti(Sanon) wants to do her PHd in how violent behaviour can be transformed by counselling and therapy. Her Delhi University professors aren’t convinced about her topic. Enter Shankar (Dhanush), a local goon, Delhi University Student Union presidential candidate, who hits more than he talks. A brooding, angry man, who only understands the language of violence, seems like Mukti's perfect case study - and someone she can ‘handle’ (she keeps saying the word as if he were a pet gone rogue) and transform.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Shankar is obviously enamoured by her beauty, and they decide to hang out together. She gives him a disclaimer- she is not willing to fall in love with him, but plays the part just to get her work done, while he is more than eager to be seen around with the hot girl on campus. Sparks flow, mostly from Shankar’s side, and he sits when she asks him to, takes in a few punches when she wants him to, and pretends to be a changed person, just so that her thesis gets accepted.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Things go awry after two months, when Shankar realises he is in love, and she is not. And like a privileged man that Indian films keep throwing at us, he just can’t seem to take no. He pours petrol over a possible suitor of Mukti’s, burns her house down in rage when he realises she and her pompous IAS officer dad (Tota RoyChowdhury) have not kept their part of the deal. It doesn’t help that Mukti is never really clear about her feelings towards him. She doesn't say a proper no, but looks teary-eyed and in fear while Shankar creates havoc around her.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Years later, they meet again. This time, Shankar is a problematic IAF officer who needs counselling for his raging temper, and she is an emotional wreck who is strangely given the task to fix him again. Everyone seems blind around them and does not notice how the two need help themselves, and does not save each other. Problematic, they both remain, though.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>What does not work in Tere Ishk Mein?</h2><p>Mostly everything. The film’s problematic story glorifies toxicity to no end. The man needs therapy, but his rage is justified because the girl he fell in love with led him on. The girl is self-obsessed and breaks into long monologues often, analysing her case study- Shankar- almost blind in not understanding that she is leading him on. All the time. At one point, Shankar calls Mukti - <i>Murkh Aurat</i>- foolish woman, and she truly is. She is enabling him to behave a certain way, and when he gets a vision in life, all thanks to her father’s taunt, she wants to take credit for the transformation.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In the latter half of the film, as Mukti is on the path of self-destruction - because she is a <i>murkh aurat</i>, as Shankar pointed out she is shown to have liver cirrhosis and is 9 months pregnant. She pops pills and gulps down whiskey and sits across from Shankar, who smokes away to control his anger. Everything is wrong about this scene, and no one points that out.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>Rai and Rahman have collaborated earlier in films like <i>Raanjhanaa </i>and <i>Atrangi Re</i>- which had memorable music. <i>Tere Ishk Mein</i> has no songs that are worth a second listen.</p><p>Just when you think the film can’t get more insufferable, they bring in Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub from the <i>Raanjhanaa</i> universe, referring to his dead friend Kundan and insisting Shankar would not get relief from his pain just yet. Such a pointless cameo and such wasted potential of an actor.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>What works</h2><p>The actors make <i>Tere Ishk Mein</i> watchable. Dhanush plays the raging, toxic Shankar with great intensity; however, his Kundan act from <i>Raanjhanaa</i> was far more enjoyable. Here, the writing gives him ample scope to perform a toxic guy, but the character itself is so annoying that you don't want to sympathise. Kriti Sanon, who has in films like <i>Mimi, Do Patti, </i>has proved her mettle as an actor, delivers well to her part. The actress is particularly good in the emotional scenes.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Prakash Raj, Tota Roy Chowdhury and Priyanshu Painyuli are also there as supporting cast but have limited scope to shine. Priyanshu’s character simply disappears in the second half after playing the loyal friend to Shankar in his college years.</p><h2>Final Verdict</h2><p><i>Tere Ishk Mein </i>comes at a time when there has been a lot of discussion around toxicity and glorification of the alpha male in films like <i>Kabir Singh </i>and <i>Animal.</i> While these films, along with Luv Ranjan’s brand of cinema that makes all women the villain and root cause of destruction of the world, have been loved by the audience, they have also opened up discussion about how it is not okay to glorify such problematic behaviour. But Aanand L Rai and Himanshu Sharma don’t seem to pay any heed to such discussion. The duo in the past have made fun of mental health and bipolarity in <i>Attrangi Re</i> and compared a dwarf to a chimp in<i> Zero,</i> and now are glorifying toxic alpha men destroying everything around them in the name of love.</p>

<p><i>Tere Ishk Mein</i> left me laughing out loud in sheer frustration. Bollywood really needs to stop glorifying toxicity. This is not love.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Tere Ishk Mein is now running in theatres across the country.</p>

Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja reportedly expecting their second child</strong></a></p><h2>A love story marked by anguish and rage</h2><p>The teaser introduces audiences to Shankar (Dhanush) and Mukti (Kriti Sanon), whose relationship is built on intensity rather than comfort. The clip opens with an emotionally charged sequence: Shankar, returning from his father’s funeral, storms into Mukti’s wedding festivities. In a shocking act, he pours Ganga jal on her during her Mehendi ceremony, demanding she “wash away her sins” before starting a new life. The moment echoes the raw, unfiltered emotions Rai is known to capture.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/zubeen-garg-death-case-singer-s-manager-and-singapore-event-oragniser-arrested-1759290969587"><strong>Zubeen Garg death case: Singer's manager and Singapore event organiser arrested</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As the teaser unfolds, we see Shankar confronting faceless enemies while Mukti drowns her heartbreak in alcohol and cigarettes, hinting at the toxicity of their bond. Their twisted smiles, laced with both love and vengeance, set the tone for a narrative that blurs the lines between devotion and destruction.</p><h2>The musical soul of the film</h2><p>Adding to the intensity is A. R. Rahman’s evocative score, his third Hindi collaboration with Dhanush and Aanand L Rai after Raanjhanaa and Atrangi Re. With lyrics penned by Irshad Kamil and vocals by Arijit Singh, the music promises to tug at the heart while amplifying the film’s emotional storm. The teaser track is already being praised as a haunting earworm that lingers long after it ends.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/priyanka-chopra-celebrates-durga-puja-seeks-blessing-at-mumbai-pandal-1759289874041"><strong>Priyanka Chopra celebrates Durga Puja, seeks blessing at Mumbai pandal</strong></a></p><h2>Aanand L Rai’s vision returns to Benaras</h2><p>Shot against the spiritual and chaotic canvas of Benaras, the film revisits Rai’s fascination with the city.
