This here is a movie that could have been a laugh riot, but somewhere along the line, director Varun Khanna concentrated too much on the bickering of the gangs, thus throwing the focus off gear. What comes out strongly in the end is the .mild gang war' rather than the comedy that is supposed to rest on Govind's bad luck.

Movie Review: Bad Luck Govind; Cast: Gaurav Kapoor, Hrishita Bhatt, Govind Namdeo, Parmeet Sethi and Archana Puran Singh; Director: Varun Khanna; Rating: * - Avoid your bad luck by avoiding it.
The film tells the story of an unlucky bloke Govind (Gaurav) whose bad luck runs so strong that it immediately passes on to those around him. Not only cows stop giving milk if he passes a tabela, people fall of their bicycles, men also lose their manhood if he is around. Working as a production assistant in TV channel based in Delhi, he gets fed up of his forever running bad.
