There was a time when Ananya Panday was largely associated with glossy, light-hearted Gen-Z roles. But over the last few years, the actress has quietly reshaped her on-screen identity with projects that leaned more into vulnerability and emotional realism. In fact, Ananya has steadily evolved from being seen as Bollywood’s bubbly Gen-Z star to an actress increasingly earning praise for emotionally layered performances. And according to Call Me Bae creator Collin D’Cunha, Chand Mera Dil could mark her biggest leap yet.
Speaking exclusively about Ananya’s performance as Chandni in the film, Collin said, “Ananya as Chandni is her most mature, most layered, most nuanced performance yet. She genuinely surprised me with the depth she brought to her character and with her silences and the restraint she showed. I didn’t see that coming and I couldn’t be prouder.”
The statement carries added weight because Collin has already witnessed Ananya’s growth firsthand while working with her on Call Me Bae. While the series highlighted her ease with comedy and pop-culture-driven characters, Chand Mera Dil appears to push her into far more emotionally demanding territory.
Industry conversations around Ananya have also noticeably shifted in recent years. Films like Gehraiyaan and Kho Gaye Hum Kahan allowed audiences to see a more restrained and natural side to her performances, moving away from the image she debuted with in her early career.
That transition seems to continue with Chand Mera Dil, which has been promoted as an intense romantic drama centred on heartbreak, longing and young love. Paired opposite Lakshya, Ananya’s softer screen presence in the film’s promos has already sparked conversation online, with many viewers calling it her most emotionally grounded performance so far.
What stands out most in Collin’s praise is his emphasis on “silences” and “restraint” qualities often associated with actors growing more confident in their craft. Instead of relying on dramatic moments, the performance appears to draw strength from emotional subtlety.
For an actress whose journey has unfolded under constant public scrutiny, Chand Mera Dil could well become the project that marks Ananya Panday’s transition from a young Bollywood celebrity to a performer audiences begin taking far more seriously.

This week will see the release of Chand Mera Dil, starring Lakshya and Ananya Panday. The film has managed to catch attention due to the popularity of its title track, its intriguing trailer, the chemistry between the lead actors and the fact that it belongs to the intense romance genre, which is currently performing well at the box office. The makers, Dharma Productions, completed the censor process well in advance and in this article, Bollywood Hungama will exclusively focus on the cuts given to the film.
The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) passed Chand Mera Dil with a U/A 16+ certificate. However, the makers were asked to make two modifications. Firstly, the kissing visuals, lasting 10 seconds, were asked to be deleted and replaced with appropriate shots. Secondly, ‘lip lock kissing visuals’, lasting 1 minute and 26 seconds, were asked to be deleted. In other words, the CBFC has censored 96 seconds or 1 minute and 36 seconds of kissing shots in Chand Mera Dil. Lastly, the makers were asked to submit a consent letter for all the child artists used in the film.
Once the changes were made, the CBFC handed over the censor certificate on May 8. The length of the film, as mentioned on the censor certificate, is 135.36 minutes. In other words, Chand Mera Dil is 2 hours, 15 minutes and 36 seconds long.
The advance booking of Chand Mera Dil is expected to start from Monday, May 18. It is directed by Vivek Soni of Meenakshi Sundareshwar (2021) and Aap Jaisa Koi (2025) fame and produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, Somen Mishra and Marijke deSouza.
On Saturday, May 16, Bollywood Hungama reported that on the day of its release, May 22, tickets for all shows before 5:00 pm will be available for just Rs. 149. After 5:00 pm, the tickets will be sold for Rs. 199.
