/> LOVE STORY 2050 may've gone completely unnoticed at the box-office, but Harman S. Baweja is raring to go. "It hurts if your debut film fails, but you can't let failure overpower you, " says Harman, who's ready to face the audience again next week.

VICTORY has to succeed. It's a do-or-die film for him. "Every film is a do-or-die film actually. The business is so different today. That one film plays the deciding role, " he asserts.

Tell us about VICTORY. "At the outset, when I signed VICTORY, I didn't realize it would be so tough. The role was very demanding, plus one wasn't facing actors on field, but real-life cricketers.

Also, the shooting was spread over various stadiums, depending on the availability of a cricketer. Whew... this was the most unforgettable experience ever, " Harman smiles.

At a time when every second television channel is either telecasting a cricket match or there's some discussion on cricket, why would people be interested in spending Rs. 200 for a ticket to watch a cricket match on the big screen?

"Because VICTORY is not a cricket match. It goes beyond that. It shows what happens behind closed doors, when a cricketer fails or is out of the team. His highs and lows, how his family gets affected, how his frustrations take over... So it's different, " Harman defends VICTORY.

Harman has two more films lined up in the coming months, both directed by super-successful names - Ashutosh Gowariker and Anees Bazmee. Also, a film produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, starring Amitabh Bachchan in the central role.

"I am really nervous about this one, but I am looking forward to working with Mr. Bachchan, " he states.
