Luck By Chance is a forthcoming Hindi film to be directed by debutante Zoya Akhtar. The film stars Konkona Sen Sharma[1] and Farhan Akhtar in lead roles with Rishi Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Juhi Chawla, Hrithik Roshan, Isha Sharvani and Sanjay Kapoor in supporting roles.

In this movie, for the first time, Indian film icons, Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan have made a special appearance, despite them having not shared the same frame.[2]

Plot

The film is about the journey of an actor named Vikram Jaisingh (Farhan Akhtar) who arrives in Bombay to make it big as a film star with the help of Abhimanyu (Arjun Mathur) a TV star friend, who puts him up during the initial struggle. Does he make it big? or does his struggle defeat him, and more importantly, does he pay his dues to the people who supported him when he was nobody, forms the basic crux of the story. In the film Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia will also be seen in prominent roles and Rishi plays a Punjabi producer Romy Rolly. Konkona Sen Sharma appears in the role of a junior artist named Sona Mishra, with Hrithik Roshan playing the role of a superstar. The story is about these actors of Bollywood.[3]

Development

Zoya Akhtar, sister of Farhan Akhtar, developed the script with ease. According to her “This was quite an easy film for me to write. It was a very smooth process. From start to finish, it took me no extra research to pen the story down. It is so because I’ve seen a lot of strugglers who come to Mumbai make a living out of Bollywood. Also, I have friends who came from Oman and Assam and are doing fairly good work for themselves.” Zoya was inspired for penning this movie after a lot of Bollywood inspired movies like Guddi, Rangeela and Om Shanti Om.[5] According to Farhan, principal photography for the film was completed in October.[6] Farhan had to reportedly train to get six pack abs for the film, where he plays a struggler. He was trained by Cheetah Yagnesh, who appeared on the film as Farhan's character's trainer. Isha Sharvani, who had a hanging ring sequence in the movie was reportedly in a sore condition due to all the diamonds that were attached to her dress.[7]

Casting

The films casting includes practically everybody in Bollywood. Zoya roped in her brother to play the lead role after being suggested by the director of Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd., Reema Kagti. She was more convinced after seeing his acting in Fakir of Venice and hence he was signed for this movie even before the release of Farhan's acting debut in the 2008 hit movie Rock On!!. She said in an interview that "Farhan was the perfect choice for the role in ‘Luck By Chance’ because he knows the industry in and out. He is smart and bright and both of us have been working together for years.” Problems arose with the huge casting of the film. Zoya said that "I had to really think it out when I was deciding on these multiple actors that I wanted in the film. It was tough to decide especially because I wanted the right actors who could play themselves and still look believable as part of the film. Then there are other good actors like Boman Irani and Saurabh Shukla, who are playing characters in the film. All I can say is there is enough for everyone in the film".[5] Next to cast were her parents Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi, alongwith veteran stars like Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia, though not as a pair.[6] Isha Sharvani teams up again with Hrithik Roshan after appearing for an ad. [7] Juhi Chawla joined the cast playing Minty. She had to reportedly color her hair blonde for the role.[8]

Promotion

The producers decided to go with subtle promotion for the movie, while letting audiences explore the film by themselves.[9] The main trailer for the movie was released on the last week of December. The trailer introduced the main characters and set the pace for the what the movie was about.[10]

Release

The movie was initially scheduled to be released on 23rd January alongside Raaz - The Mystery Continues, but was later pushed to 30th January for release.[11]

Music

Untitled

The music of Luck By Chance was released on 30th December 2008. It had the early release through iTunes since 23rd December 2008.[12] The album is composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and the lyrics written by Javed Akhtar. Unlike expected, Farhan Akhtar didnot lend his voice to the soundtrack like Rock On!!.[5] The promotion of the music was done keeping the digital platform in mind. The music of Luck By Chance was made available directly and through partner sponsers on mobile, internet and physical markets.[13] The first music video for the album "Baawre" was released on 12th January 2009, which showed a circus-eque setting where Hrithik Roshan and Isha Sharvani are seen performing alongwith a whole bunch of Russian circus performers.

Reception

The music of the movie has received rave reviews. iTunes gave a high rating of the music saying "the music album is contemporary and vibrant, having shades of inspiration, romance, feel good and Sufi."[13] MSN India gave a positive review saying "The album has a robust mix of songs of different genres, a trademark of Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy that will enthrall audiences and at the same time give them sensible renditions to hum. On the whole, Luck By Chance stands for quality like most of the albums by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. A perfect soundtrack with medium-paced songs, great singing and hummable lyrics, the album is a sure shot hit. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, reinforces one's faith in good music. The composers also prove that Bollywood musicians aren't shy of experimenting. [14] Rediff also gave good review saying "The bottom line is that Luck By Chance's music is aimed at the Dil Chahta Hai generation of Bollywood viewers - it's definitely urban and the music rocks![15] Hindustan Times gave a modest review saying "Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy come out of their comfort zone of lilting romantic melodies and wallop out unusual tracks here. Check out Shankar Mahadevan’s masterful jugalbandi with a Rajasthani ensemble in Baawre or the dark, fast-paced Sapnon se bhare naina, which are reason enough to buy the soundtrack."[16]
