So I find myself booking tickets for Luck By Chance on a Saturday morning, that too at 9:30 am and 9:30 being the operative word rather number :D But considering the astronomical ticket rates at multiplexes nowadays, it's these morning shows that come to the rescue of us otherwise huge money spenders (courtesy Shoppers' Stop, Brand Factory et al)!! Anyway, that's really not the idea behind this post...
Let's get straight to the point...Zoya Akhtar, the Director has finally arrived! Yep it's Luck By Chance I'm talking about and trust me, what a fantabulous movie! Intense, intelligent and leaves you wanting for more...all the characters have been etched in such a superb fashion that you get to see different facets of the ever intriguing human psyche! Hats off to both Farhan and Konkana for such brilliant performances and not just them, it's the entire cast that's done a fab job!
The opening credits feature with all those people in the background, who are associated with the film industry in some way or the other...be it the tailor stitching clothes or artists painting posters or even people selling tickets at the counters in cinema halls...of course, the list doesn't here...Zoya has been pretty meticulous about it! If this is how the film kickstarts, then you know what's in store for you..yep something beyond your money's worth! Having said that, I would like to add that you would also come across Farhan shooting songs a la Shahrukh (the typical mushy romantic songs that Shahrukh's delivered till date) but even then he isn't bad after all haha!! The screenplay is excellent and for all you movie buffs (even non-movie buffs) out there, it's a real treat in the form of Luck By Chance!
All said and done, it's a hit and definitely NOT by chance!!

good movie...but definitely wont b a hit...Indian audience is yet to grow up to subtlety!
That's true but at the same time, we have seen that nowadays, audience wants to see something different and I believe this is just that....so let's hope that's what helps make this movie a hit!
Thanks for the comment btw :)
yes, ppl want somthng diffrnt...but stil it hs to cater to thr tastes in some way...thr arent many takers for unemphatic dialogues and subtlety!i kno m sounding cynical here and i do hope the movie scores, but truth is, it isnt doing very well as of nw...and most probably wont! sad but true :(
