What happens

Meri Pyaari Bindu (transl. My Dear Bindu) is a 2017 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama film, written by Suprotim Sengupta and directed by Akshay Roy. The film stars Parineeti Chopra and Ayushmann Khurrana in lead roles. The story follows the complicated relationship between a writer, Abhimanyu (Khurrana), and his childhood love, Bindu (Chopra), who is an aspiring singer. Meri Pyaari Bindu was released worldwide on 12 May 2017 to mixed-to-positive reviews, with praise for its novel concept, and the lead pair's chemistry and performances, but criticism for its narrative and pacing. However, the film emerged as a commercial disappointment at the box-office, grossing ₹17.7 crore worldwide against a budget of ₹22 crore. At the 63rd Filmfare Awards, Meri Pyaari Bindu received 2 nominations – Best Lyricist (Kausar Munir for the song "Maana Ke Hum Yaar Nahin") and Best Female Playback Singer (Monali Thakur for the song "Khol De Baahein").
