Chand Mera Dil Day 1 Advance Booking: 32,000+ Tickets Sold As CBFC Clears Extended Cut With 8 New Scenes

BY SACNILK

Lakshya and Ananya Panday's upcoming love story, Chand Mera Dil, is all set for its theatrical release this Friday. However, just hours before it hits the big screen, there is a major update regarding its duration. According to an exclusive report by Bollywood Hungama, the film has now become roughly 11 minutes longer than its original censor cut. The Central Board of Film Certification had initially cleared the movie with a runtime of 135.36 minutes on May 8. But on May 20, the producers went back to the board to include some extra footage they had voluntarily added. The CBFC has now passed an extended version that includes eight new scenes. These additions range from short clips to a significant sequence in the first half lasting nearly four minutes. This brings the final runtime of the film to 145.53 minutes, or 2 hours and 25 minutes. This Vivek Soni directorial, produced by Karan Johar and Dharma Productions, is looking to attract a wide audience with a very aggressive pricing strategy on its opening day. As previously shared by Bollywood Hungama, tickets for all shows on May 22 before 5:00 PM are priced at just 149 rupees. For evening shows starting after 5:00 PM, the price will be a flat 199 rupees. This move is clearly intended to boost the initial footfalls across the country. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Looking at the advance booking numbers for the opening day, the national chains are showing decent traction. In the three major multiplexes—PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis—the film has already sold roughly 32,270 tickets. PVR leads the way with about 15,380 tickets, followed by INOX with 10,900 and Cinepolis with 5,990 tickets. This has resulted in a gross of approximately 64.20 lakh rupees from these chains alone, with PVR contributing 31.60 lakh, INOX adding 20.85 lakh, and Cinepolis bringing in 11.75 lakh. Despite the release being just around the corner, advance bookings in several Mumbai theaters and other regions faced some minor delays. The change in runtime forced theater programmers to restructure their show schedules at the last minute to accommodate the longer version. Additionally, exhibitors have noted that the unexpected success of the Marathi film Deool Band 2 has created a bit of a scheduling challenge in certain pockets where it is performing exceptionally well. While most cinemas have now opened their bookings, the team behind Chand Mera Dil has reportedly been very flexible with exhibitors regarding the show counts. With Lakshya and Ananya Panday leading this romantic drama, the focus is now on how this extended cut will perform under these competitive conditions. Fans of the genre will be hoping that the added 11 minutes bring even more depth to this highly anticipated love story.

Chand Mera Dil Box Office: CBFC Grants U/A 16+ Certificate After 96 Seconds of Cuts; Advance Booking Starts May 18

BY SACNILK

Romance fans have a significant update to track as the advance booking for the upcoming film Chand Mera Dil is set to open today, Monday, May 18. Directed by Vivek Soni, known for his work on Meenakshi Sundareshwar and Aap Jaisa Koi, this Dharma Productions venture has generated considerable buzz. The pairing of Lakshya and Ananya Panday, combined with an intense romantic narrative, has made it one of the most anticipated releases of the month. Before the film heads to theaters on May 22, it has completed its mandatory certification process. According to an exclusive report by Bollywood Hungama, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) passed the movie with a U/A 16+ certificate. While the intense nature of the romance remains a key selling point, the board did request some specific modifications to the intimate sequences in the film. The CBFC requested the deletion and replacement of approximately 96 seconds of kissing visuals. This includes a 10-second sequence that was replaced with alternative shots and a more substantial 1 minute and 26 seconds of lip-lock visuals that were asked to be removed entirely. Beyond these visual edits, the makers were also required to submit consent letters for all child artists who appeared in the film. These changes were finalized in early May, and the official censor certificate was handed over to the producers on May 8. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Following these modifications, the final runtime of Chand Mera Dil is confirmed to be 135.36 minutes, which translates to a total duration of 2 hours, 15 minutes, and 36 seconds. This duration is fairly standard for a contemporary romantic drama and is expected to provide a well-paced theatrical experience. The production is a collaborative effort involving Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, Somen Mishra, and Marijke deSouza. To ensure a strong start at the ticket windows, the makers have implemented an aggressive pricing strategy for the opening day. On Friday, May 22, moviegoers can purchase tickets for all shows scheduled before 5:00 pm for just ₹149. For shows scheduled after 5:00 pm, the price will increase slightly to ₹199. This tiered pricing model is a strategic move to capitalize on the film's musical popularity and the chemistry of the lead pair, encouraging a high turnout right from the first day of release.

Chand Mera Dil Release Date: Ananya Panday and Lakshya Starrer Locks May 22 Release for Dharma's Musical Romance

BY SACNILK

The official release date for the upcoming musical romantic drama titled Chand Mera Dil has been locked. Starring the fresh pairing of Ananya Panday and Lakshya, the film is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on May 22, 2026. Directed by Vivek Soni, the project is being mounted as an intense love story, aiming to capture the lucrative summer vacation window which has historically favored soulful romantic musicals from the banner. This film marks a crucial theatrical outing for Lakshya, who has seen a significant rise in his career profile following the massive critical acclaim of the actioner Kill. Furthermore, his performance in the globally successful series The Bastards of Bollywood has established him as a versatile talent in the digital space. With Chand Mera Dil, the actor makes a transition back to the big screen in a traditional romantic lead role, signaling a strategic effort by Dharma Productions to build him as a bankable theatrical star across different genres. Ananya Panday continues her long-standing association with the banner, following a string of high-profile projects. The evocative tagline of the film, Pyaar mein thoda paagal hona hi padta hai(One has to be a little crazy in love), suggests a narrative that leans into the emotional and passionate tropes of classic Bollywood romance. Industry Expectations suggests that the fresh chemistry between Ananya and Lakshya will be a key driver for the youth audience, which remains the primary demographic for such urban romantic musicals. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Director Vivek Soni, who previously showcased his ability to handle sensitive relationship dramas with Meenakshi Sundareshwar, makes his debut on the big screen with this project. The film also represents one of the major theatrical releases under the new partnership involving Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, and Apoorva Mehta. This collaboration highlights a concentrated effort to bring large-scale, music-heavy romantic films back to the theaters, moving away from the direct-to-digital trend seen in the genre over the last few years. As the film targets a May 22 release, it joins a competitive summer lineup in 2026. The success of the project will likely rely on the rollout of its musical score, which has always been a cornerstone for Dharma Productions event films. The primary focus remains on whether this musical love story can replicate the box office durability of similar romantic hits. With the production team now shifting focus toward the promotional phase, Chand Mera Dil stands as a significant title to watch for the first half of 2026.
