Midweek: ‘Luck By Chance’ is dull, ‘Victory’ is clean bowled!

Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
Luck By Chance	Farhan Akhtar, Konkona Sen Sharma, Rishi Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Juhi Chawla, Isha Sharwani, Sanjay Kapoor, Hrithik Roshan [sp. app.]	Presents the inside view of the film industry remarkably	Difficult to find	Had a slow start on Friday, but picked up from Friday evening onwards at very select screens of select metros. Saturday showed a marginal increase, but not a major jump. Sunday was decent too. Despite tremendous appreciation and critical acclaim, the first weekend figures are below the mark
Raaz - The Mystery Continues	Emraan Hashmi, Kangna Ranaut, Adhyayan Suman, Jackie Shroff	Striking performances, lilting music and skilled direction	Climax could've been more impactful	Hit
Slumdog Millionaire	Dev Patel, Anil Kapoor, Irrfan Khan, Freida Pinto, Mahesh Manjrekar, Saurabh Shukla, Madhur Mittal	A brilliant film in all respects	Difficult to find	Hit
Ghajini	Aamir Khan, Asin, Jiah Khan, Pradeep Rawat	A perfect film in all respects. Aamir is its USP	Difficult to find	All-time Blockbuster
Victory	Harman Baweja, Amrita Rao, Anupam Kher, Gulshan Grover	A few moments in the second hour, mainly the climax	Screenplay lacks grip	Disastrous weekend. The opening weekend is much lower than even LOVE STORY 2050 almost everywhere. Debacle
