As if touched by moonlit magic, Chand Mera Dil dazzled its way to Rs. 60 lakh on its second Thursday, concluding a prosperous second week with a sparkling total of Rs. 7.90 crore nett. This heartwarming film waltzed through the Indian box office, amassing a 14-day treasure trove of Rs. 26.15 crore nett, following a smashing first week collection of Rs. 18.25 crore.
With this enchanting performance, Chand Mera Dil has gracefully eclipsed the lifetime earnings of Lakshya’s initial offering, Kill. Directed by the talented Vivek Soni, the film is now on the brink of its theatrical farewell, likely wrapping up with a box office tally under Rs. 30 crore. Although this figure might not be stellar, it’s crucial to remember that the movie enjoyed a Buy-One-Get-One promotion almost every weekday.
However, the mixed reviews from audiences proved to be a stumbling block for this magical tale starring Lakshya and Ananya Panday. Had it basked in a brighter word-of-mouth glow, its box office fortunes might have soared even higher. In the shifting landscape post-2020, the rom-com genre has faced its own struggles, with very few romantic dramas managing to capture major blockbuster status.
