Luck By Chance

This is the 10th movie and the 1st Hindi movie I am writing about !! I hope you guys are getting to know about some good movies via my blog. Keep giving your support and suggestions to improve this blog.


The movie is an insight into Bollywood. It exhibits Bollywood from different perspectives. You have Bollywood's view from a struggling actor, a starlet, a producer, a director, a star kid, a superstar and even from wives of directors and producers. As the name suggests, the movie also emphasizes on the 'luck factor' involved in the industry.

The story revolves around Vikram Jai Singh (Farhan Akhtar), a struggling actor who is hardworking, optimistic and has an edge over others with his manipulation skills. Even though he doesn't believe in luck or destiny, these play a crucial role in him achieving his goal. He meets Sona Mishra(Konkona Sen Sharma), who supports him when his own friend lambasted (#vocab :P ) him. What happens when he tastes success? Is he able to keep his relations unharmed? Does he sever his ties with those 'who knew him before he was nothing'?

Zoya Akhtar made her directorial debut in this film and she has done wonders in it. The story never loses your attention. Dialogues and lyrics have been written by none other than Javed Akhtar. Songs are class-apart. Sapnon se bharein naina is a gem.

Rishi Kapoor is extraordinary in his role of Rommy Rolly, the producer. He is natural in his acting and manages to extract laughter from the audience with his appearance every single time. Saurabh Shukla plays the role of an acting teacher and the mastery of his role is conveyed at the very beginning. Dimple Kapadia too added life to her role of Neena Walia, the diva. Isha Sharvani plays Nikki Walia, the ditzy star child really well. Hrithik Roshan and Juhi Chawla have special appearances in the film and they too are entertaining. In short, all the actors have done justice to their roles which makes this film a treat to watch.

It's sad that the film didn't get the recognition it should have had.I hope you guys enjoy it !
