Bollywood actress Tripti Dimri, who recently gained immense popularity with her performance in Ranbir Kapoor’s blockbuster film Animal, is now making headlines with rumors about her next big project. Buzz in the film industry suggests that Tripti could be teaming up with Dhanush for the upcoming film Tere Ishq Mein, which many initially thought to be a sequel to the hit movie Raanjhanaa. However, filmmaker Anand L Rai has recently shared updates that paint a clearer picture of these rumors.
What is Tere Ishq Mein? A Fresh Story, Not a Sequel to Raanjhanaa
In July 2023, on the 10th anniversary of the release of Raanjhanaa, Anand L Rai announced his new project Tere Ishq Mein. This led to widespread speculation that it could be a sequel to the beloved film, which starred Dhanush and Sonam Kapoor. However, the director quickly clarified that while Tere Ishq Mein shares the same emotional energy and spirit as Raanjhanaa, it is not a sequel but a completely new story. The cast and crew, including Dhanush, AR Rahman, Irshad Kamil, and Himanshu Sharma, will remain the same, but the narrative is fresh and unrelated to Raanjhanaa.
Rai described Tere Ishq Mein as an “expansion, not an extension” of the feelings portrayed in Raanjhanaa, suggesting that audiences can expect a similar vibe but within a unique storyline.
Tripti Dimri’s Casting: Confirmed or Still a Rumor?
The big question surrounding Tere Ishq Mein now is whether Tripti Dimri will be cast opposite Dhanush in the lead female role. While the rumor mill has been churning with this speculation, Anand L Rai recently addressed the situation in an interview with Zoom. Without giving too much away, Rai stated, “Let the rumors stay as they are. We will make a formal announcement about the cast soon.”
Although he neither confirmed nor denied Tripti’s involvement, his comments suggest that an official announcement regarding the film’s cast, including the female lead, is imminent. Fans are eager to see if Tripti, who has been riding high on the success of Animal, will land this major role alongside Dhanush.
When Will Tere Ishq Mein Begin Shooting?
Although Tere Ishq Mein was announced in 2023, the film’s shooting schedule has faced delays. The main reason for the postponement has been Dhanush’s busy schedule, as he is committed to several projects. However, reports suggest that production is expected to kick off in October 2024.
Once the shooting begins, fans will get a clearer picture of the full cast, and whether or not Tripti Dimri will indeed share the screen with Dhanush in this much-anticipated film.
Tripti Dimri’s Career on a Roll: Big Projects Lined Up
Even though her casting in Tere Ishq Mein is still under wraps, Tripti Dimri’s career trajectory has been nothing short of impressive. Following her critically acclaimed role in Animal, Tripti has been flooded with film offers, and her popularity continues to soar.
Recently, it was confirmed that Tripti will star alongside Shahid Kapoor in a film directed by Vishal Bhardwaj. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, this film is set to be another feather in her cap as she establishes herself as one of the industry’s most promising young talents.
Additionally, Tripti’s comedy film Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, in which she stars alongside Rajkummar Rao, is scheduled for release on October 11, 2024. As if that weren’t enough, she will also be seen in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, featuring a star-studded cast including Kartik Aaryan, Madhuri Dixit, and Vidya Balan. The film is set for a Diwali release, adding to the list of major projects keeping Tripti in the spotlight.
What to Expect from Tere Ishq Mein
While Tere Ishq Mein might not be the direct sequel to Raanjhanaa that some fans were hoping for, it is expected to evoke similar emotions and energy. With Dhanush already confirmed as the lead, and rumors of Tripti Dimri joining the project swirling, the film is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated Bollywood releases in the coming year.
All eyes are now on Anand L Rai, who is expected to reveal the full cast soon. Whether or not Tripti Dimri will be part of this project remains to be seen, but one thing is certain – the excitement surrounding Tere Ishq Mein is building, and fans can’t wait to see what’s in store.
