Actor's response
Sanon addresses criticism of 'Tere Ishk Mein'
In a recent interview, Sanon reacted to the criticism she received for being part of a "toxic" love story. She told Hindustan Times, "I'm obsessed. I'm always reading what people are saying... I love debating: that's the point of art." "Not everyone sees a painting the same way, and the same goes for cinema. You connect with something because of your experiences, because you've known someone like Shankar or Mukti."

Sanon added, "TIM is interesting because it shows toxic love, but the girl also calls out the toxicity." The film is set in the same universe as Raanjhanaa and tells the story of Shankar and Mukti's doomed romance. Despite mixed reviews, Tere Ishk Mein was a box office hit, earning ₹116.71cr net in India and ₹161.96cr worldwide, according to Sacnilk.
