To mark filmmaker Aanand L Rai’s birthday on June 28, Colour Yellow Productions shared a cheerful reel featuring behind-the-scenes glimpses from Tere Ishk Mein. The video includes light moments, friendly pranks, and candid laughter shared by the cast and crew, offering a look at the relaxed atmosphere on set and Rai’s easygoing presence during the shoot.
From directing in the busy lanes of Old Delhi and Banaras to sharing light moments between takes, the reel offers a glimpse into Aanand L Rai’s grounded and thoughtful approach to filmmaking. With Tere Ishk Mein being a spiritual successor to one of his earlier works, the behind-the-scenes footage hints at a familiar emotional depth that has often defined his stories.
Over the years, Aanand L Rai has given us films that strike a rare balance by being deeply rooted in Indian heartlands yet bold in form and spirit. From Tanu Weds Manu and Raanjhanaa to Mukkabaaz and Haseen Dillruba, his stories have carved out their own space in Indian cinema. This reel is a reminder that while his films often delve into layered emotions, the journey of making them is filled with joy, warmth, and a whole lot of heart.
