'Chand Mera Dil' box office collection Day 7: Ananya Panday and Lakshya starrer wraps first week with Rs 26 crore haul

Vivek Soni's 'Chand Mera Dil', starring Lakshya and Ananya Panday, has completed its first week at the box office. Despite receiving mixed reviews, generating limited pre-release buzz, and facing stiff competition at the ticket window, the Karan Johar-backed romantic drama has put up a resilient show in its opening week.According to data from Sacnilk, 'Chand Mera Dil' witnessed a growth of around 15.8% on Day 7 (Thursday) compared to its Wednesday collection. The film earned Rs 2.20 crore across 3,713 shows. Its total India gross collection now stands at an estimaed Rs 22.98 crore, while the total India net collection has hit an estimated Rs 19.45 crore. On the overseas front, the Ananya Panday and Lakshya starrer collected Rs 15 lakh on Day 7, taking its total overseas gross to an estimated Rs 3.05 crore. This pushes the total worldwide gross to an estimated Rs 26.03 crore.Day 1 collection: Rs 3 croreDay 2 collection: Rs 3.65 croreDay 3 collection: Rs 4.25 croreDay 4 collection: Rs 2.25 croreDay 5 collection: Rs 2.10 croreDay 6 collection: Rs 1.90 croreDay 7 collection: Rs 2.20 croreTotal collection: Rs 19.45 croreThe film followed a familiar pattern, strong opening weekend, a sharp Monday drop, and a gradual mid-week stabilisation. The minimal growth is a mildly encouraging sign heading into its second weekend.'Chand Mera Dil' has had to fight hard for screens and audiences since its opening day. It clashed directly with the Hollywood release 'Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu' on May 22, 2026, and has also been sharing screens with Ayushmann Khurrana's 'Pati Patni Aur Woh Do', which is currently in its second week. Navigating this crowded theatrical landscape, the film's Week 1 performance can be considered a reasonable hold given the circumstances.Away from the box office, 'Chand Mera Dil' has sparked plenty of conversation online, and not all of it for the right reasons. Ananya Panday's contemporary Bharatanatyam dance number in the film went viral, with netizens trolling the actress over her moves. However, the film has also drawn praise for its grounded and healthy portrayal of love, with audiences appreciating that the lead pair's dynamic steers clear of toxic relationship tropes.Released on May 22, 2026, 'Chand Mera Dil' features Lakshya as Aarav and Ananya Panday as Chandni, with Aastha Singh playing Jyotsna. The supporting cast includes Pratham Rathod, Aashish Dubey, Ankur Poddar, and Elvis Jose in key roles.Directed by Vivek Soni and produced under Karan Johar's banner, the film was positioned as a heartfelt romantic drama and has found a niche audience, even if broader footfalls have remained modest in its debut week.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and data in this article are compiled from diverse public and industry sources.
