The following are new releases opening in theaters in the next week.
Luck by Chance
The fantasy sellers and the devoted audience, the insane love for cinema mixed with the eccentric notion of divinity and archaic beliefs--these are the contradictions that keep this world spinning.
The stark reality of living in India juxtaposed with the fantastical world depicted on screen suddenly begins to make sense… "Luck By Chance" is about a slice of Bollywood life, in which Kismet plays a huge role.
Here, notions of superstition, fate and destiny underline every life, as grand desires and opportunity converge to form strange patterns. In such an unpredictable climate, is success and failure what others define for you or is it something you decide for yourself? This is a contemporary tale set in a world desperate to escape its own reality.
Starring Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar, Rishi Kapoor, Konkona SenSharma, Isha Sharwani
