Films
are
as
unpredictable
as
summer
rain.
You
don"t
know
whether
a
film
will
do
well
or
not
until
it
proves
at
the
box
office.
Even
big-budgeted
films
fail
in
spite
of
huge
publicity.
Sometimes
good
word
of
mouth
works
wonders
to
small-budgeted
films.
And
the
views
of
the
critics
determine
the
opening
of
a
film
to
a
large
extent.
If
we
are
to
go
by
this
criteria,
Once
Upon
A
Time
In
Mumbai
has
won
half
the
battle,
as
it
has
got
good
reviews.
Popular
film

“Once

A

“Once

A

is

The

stellar

power-packed
writing,
exceptional

and
ear-pleasing

are
its
trump
cards.
An
outstanding
