Need help in script

While trying to run below script, the script is going in loop everytime it runs.
This script is basically if the first curl command generates files cookies.txt and its size is more that 215v , it should exit else it should go in loop for 3 times.
But whenever i run it, it goes in the loop. Can anybody help

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
link=$(cat /local/home/link_url.txt)
curl -k -c /local/home/path/cookies.txt "$link";
1=/local/home/path/cookies.txt
minimumsize=215
actualsize=$(wc -c < "$1")
for (( i=1; i<=3; i++ ))
do
if [[ -s "$1" &&  $actualsize -lt $minimumsize ]] ||  [ ! -s "$1" ]
then
curl -k -c /local/home/path/cookies.txt "$link"
fi
done

If i directly harcode the link in place of "$link" the script is working fine but when i am using variable and placing it as in script it is going in loop.

home

HOME(8) 						      System Manager's Manual							   HOME(8)

NAME

       home, 40meg, 80meg, personalize, update, Disclabel - administration for local file systems

SYNOPSIS

       gnot/home
       gnot/personalize
       gnot/update

       magnum/home
       magnum/personalize
       magnum/update

       pc/40meg
       pc/80meg
       pc/personalize
       pc/update

       nextstation/home
       nextstation/update

DESCRIPTION

       These programs help maintain a file system on a local disk for a private machine.

       Home  partitions a disk, copies the appropriate kernel to the disk, and makes a new file system on the disk.  To do this, it overwrites the
       vendor-supplied software on the disk with a copy of Plan 9.  40meg, 80meg, and 100meg configure disks and make file systems  for  disks	of
       the appropriate size.

       Update copies the current kernel to the disk and updates files on the local file system.  It only updates those files put there by the home
       program.

       Personalize removes the contents of the /usr directory on the local disk and copies a minimal set of files for the user who runs  the  com-
       mand.

       The  file  /rc/bin/nextstation/Disclabel,  despite  its	name,  is not an rc(1) script.	It contains the second stage bootstrap program for
       Nextstations booting from local disk.  Before  booting  a  Plan	9  Nextstation	from  disk,  it  should  be  installed	in  the  partition
       /dev/hd1label; this is normally done by nexstation/home.
