Luck By Chance

Just back from watching the Hindi movie "Luck By Chance" starring Farhan Akhtar, Konkana Sen Sharma and a great ensemble of other actors. The movie is an insider look into all that goes into making a movie in the "hindi film industry" and not "Bollywood" as Dimple Kapadia calls it. And it indeed was a really good look.

Enjoyable, witty, insightful, overload of maxims from everyone ranging from Farhan to Sharukh Khan(!) and at times boring this is a genuine multiplex movie. I would have loved to watched it at the PVR cinemas at The Forum, Bangalore.

Special Mentions:
For a debutant director, Zoya Akhtar: Great job.

Farhan Akhtar: Matching up to Konkana is an achievement in itself..Though I still think he was better in "Rock On"

Rishi Kapoor: Hilarious as Romi Rolly, the producer.

Isha Sharwani: CUTE CUTE CUTE

Hrithik, Dimple, Aamir, Sharukh, Abhishek etc: Thanks for your presence in the movie. No thanks to Kareen though. I hate her..!
