As per Sridevi, Harman managed to carry the entire film on his shoulders and was fabulous in his performance from the first till the last frame. Says a friend close to Harman, “He is just cherishing all the positive response coming his way. He was disheartened when his debut film was panned by one and all. He was clueless about why he and his film were targeted. He was low for a while but then gave his all to his role in Victory. There is a limit to what an actor can do in his early days in the industry but Harman only exceeded his own efforts. He is happy that this time around audience has given him a Thumbs-Up. Now it has to be seen how the word of mouth carries the film ahead.” This time, the media has been much kinder though on the film. The majority of it may not have given the film best star rating but good words have been reserved for Harman across the globe, whether India or overseas. One of the critics has in fact questioned that ‘Whether Harman Baweja should be considered as a first class cricketer or a first class actor?’ Tell Harman about this and he says in an exhilarated tone, “That’s true. It was a double role I had to play since I had to ‘look’ and not ‘act’ like a cricketer. The entire film would have fallen down had it ever appeared on screen that I was acting. It was hard work to be a cricketer as well as an actor and I am glad that effort has been noticed.” He is cued in to good reactions from the audience. “Yup, I am aware about the way the film has opened. Expectedly it is doing much better on the single screens and I am led to believe that it is only growing with every passing show. I am extremely excited and happy with the film and it is encouraging to hear positive reviews about your work.” Talking from Colombo where he was stationed for the premier of the film (with the Indian and Sri Lankan cricket teams), Harman adds, “I won’t deny that last 7-8 months were especially tough. I had to gather myself and do something good that would help me win my audience. Along with the physical strain that I had to take for the role of a cricketer, there was a lot of mental stress as well. Thankfully, I had people close to me standing besides me throughout to help me keep focused on my job. The result is Victory!”
