Aanand L. Rai Addresses Casting Speculations for Tere Ishq Mein, Sequel to Raanjhanaa
The announcement of the sequel to the 2013 hit Raanjhanaa, titled Tere Ishq Mein, was made last year. There has been buzz surrounding actress Triptie Dimri potentially starring opposite Dhanush in the lead role. Director Aanand L. Rai has now responded to these casting rumors.
Triptie Dimri’s Rising Popularity
Triptie Dimri is currently in high demand, with several films lined up for her release, including her role in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Following her growing popularity, speculation about her involvement in the sequel to the romantic blockbuster Raanjhanaa has intensified. Aanand L. Rai announced Tere Ishq Mein to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Raanjhanaa, and the recent rumors suggest that Dimri may be cast opposite Dhanush.
Aanand L. Rai’s Response to Casting Rumors
In a recent interview with Zoom, Aanand L. Rai addressed the circulating rumors about Triptie Dimri’s casting in Tere Ishq Mein. While he did not confirm her involvement, he suggested that the speculation can continue for now. He mentioned, “Let the rumors flow. I will announce the casting very soon.” This statement has left fans and followers in a state of confusion regarding the actress’s role.
Shooting Scheduled to Begin in October
Although Tere Ishq Mein was announced last year, filming has yet to commence due to Dhanush’s prior commitments. However, it is now expected that shooting will begin in October 2024. Aanand L. Rai drew comparisons between Raanjhanaa and Tere Ishq Mein, emphasizing that while the same team—including Dhanush, A.R. Rahman, Irshad Kamil, and Himanshu Sharma—will be involved, the storyline will be entirely different.
A Unique Narrative for Tere Ishq Mein
Aanand L. Rai described Tere Ishq Mein as a distinct story, noting, “You may feel the essence of Raanjhanaa, as it carries the same feeling, energy, and mood. It is an expansion, not an extension. It enhances that feeling in a different film.”
