Chand Mera Dil Review — Lakshya Steals Every Scene and Ananya Panday Finally Silences Her Critics

There are films that entertain you, and then there are films that quietly sit with you long after you’ve walked out of the theatre. Chand Mera Dil, directed by Vivek Soni and produced by Dharma Productions, is firmly in the second category. Here’s our honest take.

Chand Mera Dil: Overview

What Is Chand Mera Dil About?

The central question the film poses is simple but profound: is love enough? Two budding engineers cross paths in a college in Hyderabad, sparks fly, but life takes a drastic turn — leaving them tangled between self-discovery, career ambitions, and an accidental mistake that changes the fate of their love story forever.

No spoilers, but the answers to those questions are what give this film its real soul.

What Works Brilliantly

The fresh pairing, the direction, the colour palette, the styling, and the attention to detail — everything elevates the film beautifully. Every frame narrates a story alongside the actors. Interestingly, the flaw within the story becomes the hero of the film. And if it’s a Karan Johar project, the music is guaranteed to impress — every song deserves a place in your favourites playlist.

And then there’s Lakshya. He is the show-stealer. Every time his character had a panic attack on screen, it felt viscerally real — there were scenes that could have easily gone overdramatic, but he handled them brilliantly. He doesn’t act only through his expressions; he acts with every cell in his body.

As for Ananya Panday, she has truly matured as an actor and has certainly silenced those who questioned her credibility — making sure the audience feels every emotion her character goes through.

Where It Falls Short

Ananya’s character Chandni is shown to be very headstrong, but certain decisions she makes feel slightly impulsive. The character could have been written stronger. The first half also could have been trimmed a little. These are minor gripes, but they do slightly disrupt the emotional rhythm the film builds so carefully.
