OTT Platform Confirmed: Where to Watch

The digital streaming rights for Chand Mera Dil have been officially secured by JioHotstar.

The partnership was subtly confirmed on the film’s official promotional posters and confirmed by industry insiders following the trailer launch. This marks a significant “Powerhouse” acquisition for the platform, which is rapidly expanding its library of premium Bollywood content.

Streaming Partner: JioHotstar
Availability: Exclusively after the theatrical window closes.

OTT Release Date Predictions

While JioHotstar has been confirmed as the platform, an exact OTT release date has not yet been announced. However, following the standard industry window for Dharma Productions:

Theatrical Release: May 22, 2026.
Standard Window: 45 to 60 days.
Projected OTT Premiere: Between mid and late July 2026.

The exact date will likely be finalized based on the film’s “Powerhouse” box office performance. If the movie continues to draw crowds into June, the digital release may be pushed toward the end of July.

Theatrical Release: Avoiding the Clash

Chand Mera Dil was originally set for a major box-office showdown with Varun Dhawan’s romantic comedy Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. However, in a strategic move to maximize “Powerhouse” footfall, the makers of Varun’s film have shifted their release to June 5.

This leaves the May 22 slot clear for Ananya and Lakshya to dominate the romantic genre during the peak summer vacation period.

**What is Chand Mera Dil About?**

The film follows the journey of Aarav (Lakshya) and Chandni (Ananya Panday), two college students whose intense, “lovesick” bond is tested as they transition into the adult world.

Key Highlights:

Fresh Chemistry: This is the first time Ananya Panday and Lakshya (who previously starred in the action-hit Kill) are sharing the screen.
Musical Powerhouse: The soundtrack, featuring tracks like Aitbaar and Khasiyat, has already gained massive traction on Spotify and YouTube.
Themes: Obsession, self-respect (izzat), and the sacrifices people make for love.
