Seems like Govind brought over his bad luck to the movie also! Though the movie had an interesting theme behind it, it wasn’t transformed into a convincing screenplay.Rather than being a story of a common man, who seems to be favored by bad luck all the time, ‘Bad Luck Govind’ ended up having a one-dimensional gang-war track.On top of that, a love angle has been added unnecessarily to the story, with the heroine serving only one purpose - being kidnapped by the villain in the climax.Bad Luck Govind is the story of an obsessive, compulsive, down-on-his-luck, young man Govind (VJ Gaurav Kapur), who has somewhat of a mind-blowing disconnect with the higher powers of the universe. His luck is such that even cows stop producing milk when he walks by a tabela.Even fresh milk instantly curdles when poured into a cup of tea.A hilarious national incident with news anchor Mamta (special appearance Archana Puran Singh) lands Govind in Mumbai from his native Delhi, where the stage is now set for Bad Luck Govind, when six madcap underworld ‘bhai’ satta bookies (Govind Namdev, Parmeet Sethi, Vrajesh Hirjee, Lalit Mohan Tiwari and Ganesh Yadav) and a gorgeous nurse (Hrishitaa Bhatt), collide - as their collective kismat’s and luck intertwine to explode as well implode in more ways than one can keep count.What follows, is madness, mayhem and hyper drama as Govind learns to romance life and rediscover faith in the power of positive.

On the concept level, the film works well, but sadly it does not reflect when transformed on screen. Though the initial few minutes are engaging and have some freshness, as the film proceeds, it ends up being a never ending torture. On the technical front it’s a royal mess what with tacky sets, bad music, pathetic production values and top it all bad direction by Varun Khanna.

Even on the acting level, no one really impresses.Talking about performances, Gaurav Kapoor disappointed us very much. When it came to portraying the role of a common man, he was no ‘Vinay Pathak’. He was hardly tolerable in the film, under-acting in most of the scenes. On the other hand, Govind Namdeo was characteristically dramatic. Vrajesh Hirjee, Ganesh Yadav and Lalit Tiwari were okay, while Hrishitaa Bhatt was totally wasted. The only actor that we feel managed to impress a bit was Parmeet Sethi. As for Zakir Hussain, we definitely got to see some variation.
