Victory – Movie Review
Harman Baweja’s second film as actor,Victory , is a time pass entertainer that thrills momentarily without ever winning you over.
After a disastrous start in love story 2050 , Harman shows growth as an actor and, to his credit, doesn’t try to copy Hirthik Roshan . He is particularly good in the last reels when Vijay – battered and bruised – is the pivot on which the fate of the final match rests.
With its average music, frugal editing and amateurish direction, ‘Victory’ turns out to be a film that just about manages to hold your interest rather than leave you bowled over.

Luck By Chance (January 30, 2009) TGV cinema Circuit
After Rock On , Farhan Akhtar gives yet another riveting performance that thoroughly deserves plaudits. The incredibly talented Konkona is superb as ever. Rishi Kapoor and Juhi Chawla delight you despite being over the top at places.
Here’s a one-of-its-kind film that takes you into the underbelly of Bollywood – into the world of dreamy-eyed strugglers, pampered starlets, superstitious producers, Hollywood aping directors, and the sensation seeking media.
In a nutshell, ‘Luck By Chance’ is a nice, touching story studded with a galaxy of stars........
LUCK BY CHANCE is an outstanding film in all respects., and is sure to prove an extremely lucky and rewarding experience at the box-office. Strongly recommended!

Thought for the Day
If you earn the wealth of pure love, you become the richest person in the world. He who is contented is the richest man in the world and the one who has many desires is the poorest man in the world. Today, man is filled with desires from top to toe. As long as one has desires, one can never be happy and peaceful. Give up desires and see for yourself how much love and bliss you get. The bliss you experience will be far superior to all the happiness you have experienced before. All the bliss is within you. But you are imagining that it is outside. What is outside is only the reflection, reaction and resound of what is within you.- Baba
