What’s so lucky about Abhay Deol?

Abhay Deol, Neetu Chandra, Archana Puransingh and Paresh Rawal were seen singing and dancing along in a garage recently. No, that’s not the coolest place to party of late. They were shooting a promotional video for their forthcoming film, Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! Going by the video, Abhay seemed to be the centre of attraction. Neetu says, “That’s because he is the central character in the film. It’s been shot in a garage to give a true feel to the song.” Paresh added, “The film is about Abhay. His name is Lucky and he is playing the title role.”

Speaking about his role in the film, Abhay says, “The character I play is ambitious. That’s the best way to put it and that’s as much as I can reveal.” Evidently excited about the film, Neetu seemed just eager to talk. There is a reason for her excitement; after all, it’s her first film as a leading heroine. She says, “This is my first solo lead and I am looking forward to it. However, every film I do, I do it like it’s my first one. So every time I am nervous and excited.”

The title of the film makes it look like a comedy. However, the star cast of the film refuses to divulge much about the story line. Abhay says, “It is about a man who steals himself alive. Now, I have given as many clues as possible. I’ll speak more when we get closer to the release date.” While the trend in the recent past is to make promotional videos of the film, Abhay seems to disagree with the pattern. He says, “I don’t know why we are doing this. As it is, I have no interest in doing a music video. Maybe it’s the trend now. They think that if the album runs, the film will work as well.”
