Films about losers winning are forever liked by audiences. The more up to date examples being Lagaan and Iqbal, also set against sports backdrops. Go back a bit and there's the Rocky-inspired Boxer.

That's the beauty of the worm-turning formula-it gets the audience rooting for the guy who fights seemingly insurmountable odds and wins. If the losers are rich snobs, so much the better! The film is a bitter-sweet coming of age tale, as well as the story of love, friendship and family triumphing against adversity.

Arindam has done a beautiful job by grooming this subject and creating a milestone like Rok Sako to Rok lo. Or perhaps he has embedded his management concepts into the film since he is a great speaker on motivation (Have heard during a seminar in Delhi).

All the characters in the movie have balanced the act, whether it's Manjari who is a simple-dimple next door girl or whether its Aparna "snobbish" Kumar. Bhajji scores well with his laughter riots. There is a slight possibility of grey haired not liking the flick, but for the youth, it's a change of life. All in all, it's a movie that stands for its sheer opulence. Bravo Arindam!!!
