Is Luck By Chance a spoof on Bollywood or a serious take on the film industry?
Konkona Sen Sharma: I have had no chance to see the film because I have been busy shooting. It's not completely a spoof and also not completely serious. There are some scenes which you will find funny. Also there's a serious aspect in the film which is kind of cruel to the outsider or people who are aware of that side of the industry. So it's a mix of everything.

You are playing a struggling actress in Luck By Chance. Is your character inspired by any real life personality?
Konkona Sen Sharma: It's completely fictional. I play a girl called Sonam Mishra. She is from Kanpur and comes to Mumbai with a dream to become an actress. She is young and ambitious and will not compromise to become successful. Unfortunately, she has to struggle a lot and gets roles like that of a hero's sister or heroine's best friend. She also gets B grade movies.

Can you relate to your character in Luck By Chance?
Konkona Sen Sharma: I know that all this happens but it hasn't ever happened to me personally. I know it's very common thing in the film industry. I have heard such stories and know some people who have gone through the same.

A debut director and just a film old lead actor... Did you have any second thoughts while signing the role?
Konkona Sen Sharma: I was aware of casting issues. Initially I had no interest in the film. But I always heard that it was a good script written by Zoya. When she called me and gave me the narration, I fell in love with it and decided to sign the film.

How's Farhan Akhtar as a co-actor?
Konkona Sen Sharma: He is very good actor and it was fun working with him. He is very natural. Farhan is very funny and he always used to crack jokes on the sets.

Thanks kully. Although Koko's characters aren't based on real life, she sure does know how to make the story like her real life. Very natural actress, I love her. Farhan and her together, I want to see this movie now...LOL
