In Episode 15 of The BoM Podcast, we break down two of the latest Bollywood releases — Tere Ishq Mein and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari — and take an honest look at what each film is trying to achieve, where they succeed, and where they fall flat.
We have a candid conversation about how Tere Ishq Mein struggles with pacing, overdramatic dialogue, and a narrative that loses its grip well before the interval — despite Dhanush giving a committed performance that ends up carrying much of the film on his shoulders. We also discuss how Kriti Sanon’s character is underwritten, feeling more like a decorative presence in the story than an integral force driving it forward.
On the flip side, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari delivers a more entertaining first half with genuine laughs and classic rom-com charm, but ultimately settles into predictable tropes we’ve seen countless times before in modern Bollywood. While Varun Dhawan does what he does best, the film plays it safe, comfortably existing in the now-familiar “Dulhania-verse” of similar titles.
We also reflect on what these films say about the current state of mainstream Bollywood — the reliance on formulas, the lack of risk-taking, and the missed potential for more layered storytelling.
In this episode, we dive into:
🎭 Why Tere Ishq Mein fails to live up to its own intensity
🔥 Dhanush’s performance vs. a weak, unconvincing script
💄 The ongoing issue of underwritten female characters
😂 The moments where Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari actually works
🎬 Bollywood’s growing comfort with predictable rom-com and drama templates
📉 Is the industry playing it too safe?
✨ A brutally honest breakdown of two films that represent where Bollywood is right now — for better or for worse.
