There’s a thin line between a quiet success and a quiet disappointment at the Bollywood box office — and **Chand Mera Dil**, starring **Lakshya** and **Ananya Panday**, seems to be treading that line uncomfortably in its second week. The romantic drama, directed by **Vivek Soni**, has now crossed Rs 26 crore nett in 14 days — a milestone that comes with an asterisk, given how heavily discount offers have propped up its weekday numbers.

## Chand Mera Dil Complete Day-Wise Box Office Breakdown

The film wrapped its second week collecting Rs 60 lakh on Day 14, closing Week 2 at Rs 7.90 crore nett. Combined with its first-week total of Rs 18.25 crore, the cumulative 14-day collection now stands at **Rs 26.15 crore nett** in India.

| Day | Collection (Nett) |
| --- | --- |
| Day 1 | Rs 2.75 cr |

## A Milestone With an Asterisk

One notable achievement in Week 2 is that *Chand Mera Dil* surpassed the lifetime India collection of Lakshya’s debut film *Kill* — a meaningful personal milestone for the actor. However, the film is now clearly in its final theatrical legs, and is projected to wrap up its entire run under the Rs 30 crore mark.

It is also important to note that the film heavily relied on a Buy-One-Get-One offer on almost every weekday to drive footfalls — which means these numbers need to be read with appropriate context.

## What Went Wrong?

The film suffered primarily due to mixed audience response. Better word-of-mouth would have made a significant difference to its run. The post-2020 rom-com space remains deeply challenging in Bollywood, with only a small number of romantic dramas managing to break through as genuine box office hits.

It’s a tough truth — *Chand Mera Dil* had the cast, the production, and the Dharma Productions backing. What it couldn’t quite secure was the crucial audience buy-in that turns a decent film into a profitable one. Even **Ananya Panday**, who has been praised individually for her performance by many viewers, couldn’t singlehandedly shift the tide.

## What’s Next for Lakshya and Ananya Panday?

Despite the underwhelming box office performance, both actors have individually earned credibility points. Lakshya, who became a breakout name after *Kill*, continues building his mainstream profile, while Ananya Panday remains one of the most recognisable Gen-Z stars in Bollywood today.

With the new batch of releases — *Bandar*, *Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai*, and *Peddi* — now competing for screens, the theatrical run of *Chand Mera Dil* is effectively coming to a close. Its OTT release will be the real second innings, and that audience may well be more generous than the multiplex crowd.
