Box office battle
'Chand Mera Dil' to clash with these films
Chand Mera Dil will be released on May 22, clashing with Bobby Deol's Bandar. The film was initially scheduled for a 2025 release, but it got delayed. The month of May is packed with Bollywood releases, including Raja Shivaji starring Riteish Deshmukh, Ek Din featuring Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi, and Gabru headlined by Sunny Deol. The second half of the month will see VVAN: Force of the Forest starring Sidharth Malhotra and Milap Zaveri's Tera Yaar Hoon Main.
Career significance
Significance of 'Chand Mera Dil' for Lakshya, Panday
Chand Mera Dil is a significant film for both Panday and Lakshya. Last year, Panday was seen in Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri opposite Kartik Aaryan. The romantic drama received mixed reviews and failed to perform well at the box office. Meanwhile, Lakshya's last theatrical release was his debut film Kill. He also appeared in Aryan Khan's Netflix series The Ba***ds of Bollywood. He would desperately hope for a strong theatrical outing to cement his position.
