Luck By Chance

....No I would rather say 'Farhan' by chance.
I don't think I would have watched this movie if it wasn't for Farhan Akhtar and his simple yet charming ways. There is a silence in him that appeals to me and a certain madness. The movie was a complete drag in the first half, with one not realizing what is happening to who giving it a 'parallel cinema feel...and has a commerical feel to it in the second half. Konkana always wins over with her acting - there is nothing really better in her than that but I did not feel she really did an outstanding job...she was like she has always been...and the other new comer..well...kiddo with cute looks...almost like a barbie doll, who has been made to look cute..and probably just that for she can hardly say a word properly...hmm...there's more....dimple kapadia...looks gorgeous with her lovely mane and well can surely act pretty well...and rishi kapoor was as good as ever. :) Storyline is just about okay...shows the life of struggling actors in bollywood and how they manage to grab the roles, if at all they do else remain second leads or doing a screen or two....but there are some lucky ones...or probably those who know how to get ahead of the rat race...those with the winning streak and the confidence to make it big...luck plays a chance or Farhan plays a chance - whatever, it is pretty close to reality and I had a good laugh over it relating some things to my own personal life. It also brings out how networking is important for each one of us in our roles, no matter how hard we work. And well...music...'sapno se bhare naina' takes an 8 out of 10 from me...indeed a beautiful song....do hear it.
