‘Lucky’ proves Unlucky

By Bollywood Hungama

OYE LUCKY! LUCKY OYE! has met with a cold reception in the two international markets -- U.K. and America. In U.K., the film ranks amongst the lowest openers of this year, while in America, despite a 5-day Thanksgiving Weekend, OYE LUCKY! LUCKY OYE! has failed to leave a mark... DOSTANA is robust in U.K., but has declined quite a bit in America... YUVVRAAJ is a debacle in U.K.
