Chand Mera Dil Sets Release Date for May
The romantic drama Chand Mera Dil, featuring Ananya Panday and Lakshya, now has an official release date of May 8, 2026. Originally announced in November 2024 with a planned 2025 release, the film experienced delays but is now ready to hit theatres this summer. Directed by Vivek, the project marks his third film after Meenakshi Sundareshwar starring Sanya Malhotra and Abhimanyu Dassani, and Aap Jaisa Koi with R. Madhavan.
This film is the first collaboration between Ananya Panday and Lakshya. Initial reports had suggested an April release, but the makers have confirmed the May 8 date. With its big-screen debut, Chand Mera Dil will join other major releases in May, including Akshay Kumar’s horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla on May 15, and Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia’s Vvan: Force of the Forest, which has been postponed to avoid a clash.
On the work front, Lakshya was last seen in the Netflix series The Ba*ds of Bollywood, directed by Aryan Khan, featuring multiple Bollywood stars in cameo roles. He previously made his film debut with Kill and is also set to appear in Dostana 2 alongside Vikrant Massey.
Ananya Panday, meanwhile, was last seen in Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri with Kartik Aaryan, which released during Christmas 2025 but underperformed at the box office. The film, directed by Sameer Vidwans, received mixed reviews. With Chand Mera Dil, fans hope to see a fresh romantic narrative from the young actors this summer.
