Kriti Sanon Breaks Silence on Tere Ishk Mein Being Labelled Toxic
Kriti Sanon, who recently delivered a strong performance in Tere Ishk Mein alongside Dhanush, is basking in the film’s impressive box-office run. While the movie has emerged as one of the year’s unexpected hits, it has also become a hot topic of conversation for its portrayal of imperfect, flawed characters—leading many to label it a “toxic love story.”
In a recent conversation with Hindustan Times, Kriti addressed the debates surrounding the storyline and its complicated characters. She admitted that she actively follows audience reactions, saying, “I’m obsessed. I’m always reading what people are saying—not just critics. I love debating; that’s the point of art.” She added that cinema, like any art form, is shaped by personal experiences, which is why different viewers interpret the same story in completely different ways. – Kriti Sanon Breaks Silence on Tere Ishk Mein Being Labelled Toxic
Reflecting on the criticism around the film’s dark emotional tones, Kriti explained, “TIM is interesting because it explores toxic love, but the girl also calls out the toxicity. You connect with Shankar or Mukti because you might have known someone like them.”
Sanon also revealed that Mukti’s character underwent significant evolution from script to screen. On paper, Dhanush’s character Shankar seemed to dominate the narrative, but director Aanand L Rai had envisioned a deeper, more layered journey for Mukti. “He told me, ‘You see more of Shankar’s love and pain in the first half, but Mukti’s world opens up in the second.’ When two characters are equally powerful, it makes the story real and balanced,” she shared. – Kriti Sanon Breaks Silence on Tere Ishk Mein Being Labelled Toxic
Recently, Kriti posted a heartfelt behind-the-scenes note, giving fans a glimpse into her emotional connection with the role. “He left her with such a storm, that it woke up the poet in her… #SanonScribbles,” she wrote, thanking director Aanand L Rai for trusting her with Mukti and describing the experience as creatively fulfilling.
The film’s success has added yet another milestone to Kriti Sanon’s career, which continues to grow through bold choices and diverse performances. With upcoming projects like Don 3 and Cocktail 2, the National Award-winning actress is gearing up to bring more complex, memorable characters to the screen.
As Tere Ishk Mein continues to spark conversations, Kriti stands by the belief that the purpose of cinema is not just to entertain but to provoke thought. And with her refreshing candour and evolving artistry, she remains one of the most compelling voices in contemporary Bollywood.
