Bollywood stars what they think is the success formula

Zoya Akhtar’s soon to be released film Luck by Chance is set in Bollywood. It shows the struggles of an actor as he hopes to make it in the industry thereby giving rise to the age old question that what does it take to make it inBollywood? Is it hard work and talent or is it all about being lucky and being in the right place at the right time?

We ask Bollywoodstars what they think is the success formula to making it in this glamourous world of movies:

Prachi Desai

InBollywood I would say one need to have luck first and then hard work. You need to be lucky to get an opportunity and then hard work to make the most out it. Sometimes you do the hard work but if you are not lucky then you will fail to make it good.

Minissha Lamba

Both are equally important. One cannot exist without the other and to sustain yourself in Bollywood one needs to have both.

Chunky Pandey

Well no doubt it has to be hard work! I have been in the industry for such a long time and seen it very closely. Those who think luck comes just like that and dream out big to make it to Bollywood are wasting their time. If people will just sit at home and think their work should get done by luck or some one else should do it, I don’t think that’s possible in any way. Achievers are always hard workers.

Tara Sharma

I think its hard work… those who really give their best get the best and that way they can have a long career in Bollywood.

Shreyas Talpade

Hard work is the key to being successful in Bollywood and staying for longer time. No one can help you till you help yourself. And I always believe in hard work rather counting on luck.

Sonu Sood

I would say both of them travel parallel and have no existence without each other. But somewhere there is a line between the two where hard work dominates and makes you to stay for long in the Bollywood.

Gulshan Grover

It has to be the combination of both else they will not be functional in Bollywood. You might be lucky to get the break, but to sustain it one needs to put in a lot of hard work.
