The Chand Mera Dil trailer feels like the story has already spoiled itself with only an emotional payoff reserved for the actual film, observes Mayur Sanap.
It is possible that Chand Mera Dil has more depth than a tub of popcorn, notes Deepa Gahlot.
'At its core, it's an honest love story. It's not trying to be loud or over-stylised; the strength lies in its simplicity and emotional truth,' said Lakshya, discussing his upcoming film Chand Mera Dil.
'Papa, your integrity is my inheritance.'
'The moment some news comes where somebody is accused of some crime, we are so quick to judge that person and call them a criminal, if that person is a very unlikable person. If we like that person, we immediately absolve her.'
Janhvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday, Suhana Khan and Shanaya Kapoor continue to shine in Bollywood in 2026, reinforcing their presence as the industry hunts for reliable next gen talent.

Janhvi Kapoor is having a golden moment at the Toronto International Film Festival, and she captures it perfectly by wearing a gown of the same colour.
'Established filmmakers want to go with the sequels of earlier hit films like Housefull 5 or Mastiii 4. They don't want to come up with fresh ideas. This is pure laziness.'
'Finding it on screen because I am not getting it in real life.'
They are venturing into allied businesses, which range from starting talent management agencies to music labels to tap into every possible monetisable opportunity to appeal to investors.

'Ayan told Karan he blundered leaving Dharma.'
Janhvi Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter, along with others, turned heads at Cannes 2025 as they walked the red carpet in absolute style ahead of the much-awaited premiere of their film 'Homebound' at the prestigious film festival.
What made the premiere special was the almost 9 minute-long standing ovation given to the team by the audience.
This Diwali will not see the three Khans or Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn or Hrithik Roshan bringing their films to the marquee, as is usually the norm. Even Ranbir Kapoor, Kartik Aaryan and Ranveer Singh will not treat us to a movie release.
'Today, Shah Rukh is sitting so high up that it will have to be something really spectacular for him to jump up and say, "Hey, yes, let's make this film!".'
Bijuria, the latest song from Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari's soundtrack, looks smashing.
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is one of those mindless fluff kind of date movies, where there is no real conflict, lots of singing and dancing in fancy outfits (as brief as possible for the ladies), observes Deepa Gahlot.
A glimpse of the film, via the trailer, indicates a sincerity of purpose and the shining of a light into those corners of India that remain dark amidst progress and prosperity, notes Deepa Gahlot.
It's been an emotional night for many film folk across India, as they were honoured at the National Awards.
The venue for the Filmfare Awards shifted to Ahmedabad last weekend, and stars dazzled on the red carpet and on stage.
In the slot of rural poor, there are those who struggle to pull themselves out of crumbling hovels, and there are the Jamtara-like bunch who turn to crime. Neeraj Ghaywan's Homebound is about the former, whose quest for respect and dignity is thwarted because they are underprivileged, notes Deepa Gahlot.
'The moment I watched the teaser I was astonished.'
Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri put forward their never-seen-before intense side in Dhadak 2, which is deemed as the spiritual sequel to the Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor-starrer 2018 film, Dhadak.
It's 'not looking like a Diwali lineup, which is usually grand and has superstar movies.'
'I have more time in Bengaluru to write, away from the film industry in Mumbai that always pulls me down and makes me frustrated.'
The elegant actor walked the red carpet for her film, Homebound.
'We knew there would be a silence from the audience after watching the film because Dhadak 2 is that kind of a film.'
'Prior to release, we heard only exemplary things about the film, so the failure came as a complete shock to my father.'
Karan used the platform to give a piece of his mind.
'So my question was, 'What is it that you are proud of? What have you achieved? What is your contribution?' 'He had no answer.'
Industry experts believe that this deal will positively impact the Indian film industry, which is struggling with fewer movie releases.
More screens, more films, and longer windows will convert to more people watching, assuming they know a film is releasing, points out Vanita Kohli-Khandekar.
