The final story in the series is ‘Spotlight’.It is by Vasan Bala. It revolves around a celebrity, Vikram Arora ‘Vik’. Harshvardhan Kapoor plays the lead. He is good. Had he been any other struggling actor he would have succeeded. But we look at him as Anil Kapoor’s son & then the scales fall.

He is known for his trademark look. For shooting he is booked in a hotel. His favourite suite is booked. But then “Didi’ arrives & he has to give up his room. Nobody can say ‘No’ to “Didi’.

He gets tired & wants to go for a swim but “Didi’ is there & he is not allowed to enter. Everybody he meets is smitten by her. “Didi ka Darbar’. Suddenly his girlfriend turns up to surprise him. But she wants to bow & touch “Didi’s feet! He realises meeting him was an excuse.

He is intrigued & decides to meet her. Just then police have raided & got drugs from her followers. But being a celebrity he gets to meet her. She spins a web & he is caught. He decides to take her to the airport. She has decided to go to the States. Nobody can raise a finger nor fire a bullet. She rides a motorcycle & vanishes.

He gets up from his stupor. The same scene is repeated & gets okayed. Look for his expressions. He is complacent & arrogant earlier. But later his face has softened & all those who said he can’t act are surprised.

One of the most under rated stars. If he gets good projects he should be able to excel. Hoping for a bright future for him. This story made my day, for sure ! All’s well that ends well!!
