Once upon a time there was a film maker called Vikram Bhatt who hit gold with whatever he made. Films like ‘Fareb’ (adulterous drama), ‘Ghulam’ (action social), ‘Kasoor’ (courtroom drama), ‘Raaz’ (musical horror) and ‘Awara Paagal Deewana’ (action comedy) traversed genres and proved to be blockbusters.

Then started a bad professional phase for this Bhatt protégé who has now delivered an astonishing 11 back to back box office duds. With his last success being ‘Awara Paagal Deewana’ (2002), it has been nothing short of a harrowing five years for the film maker who is longing to taste success.
