I listen only to my heart. And I made my film exactly the way I wanted to. For this freedom to have my say, I am grateful. As for the backlash, I was prepared for it. I have nothing to say in my defence. I\u00a0don\u2019t feel the need to defend myself.\u00a0I\u2019ve made the film I wanted to. I\u00a0wouldn\u2019t\u00a0change a frame if I had the opportunity to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aanand L Rai further added, \u201cTere Ishk Mein\u00a0belongs to my dark intense world, the world we all have inside us but are afraid to acknowledge. There is my other lighter world seen in Tanu Weds Manu. I\u00a0am equally proud of both my worlds. What I love is portraying imperfect flawed fractured characters and their stories.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/features\/dhanush-takes-nostalgic-trip-varanasi-recalls-beloved-character-kundan-promoting-upcoming-film-tere-ishk-mein\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Also Read: Dhanush takes a nostalgic trip to Varanasi, recalls beloved character Kundan while promoting upcoming film Tere Ishk Mein<\/a><\/p>\n<p> More Pages: <a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movie\/tere-ishk-mein\/box-office\/\" title=\"Tere Ishk Mein Box Office Collection\" alt=\"Tere Ishk Mein Box Office Collection\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tere Ishk Mein Box Office Collection<\/a> , <a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movie\/tere-ishk-mein\/critic-review\/tere-ishk-mein-movie-review\/tere-ishk-mein-is-an-intense-love-saga\/\" title=\"Tere Ishk Mein Movie Review\" alt=\"Tere Ishk Mein Movie Review\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tere Ishk Mein Movie Review<\/a><br \/>BOLLYWOOD NEWS &#8211;
