Warsi is now in hot `circuit'

SOLVING PUZZLE: Warsi and Sanjay Dutt in Anthony kaun hai?

Anthony Kaun Hai? (Hindi)

Cast: Arshad Warsi, Sanjay Dutt, Minissha Lamba, Anousha Dandekar

Director: Raj Kaushal

After many years of struggle, Arshad Warsi got a lifeline with "Munnabhai MBBS". For a while it seemed the tortoise would finally breast the tape ahead of the rest. Since then he has often lived on borrowed time, his fine work in films like "Seher" or "Kuchh Meetha Ho Jaye" not yielding results at the box office. The tortoise starts again. How slow, how swift! Here he tries the ultimate: Carry a film on his shoulders despite the presence of Sanjay Dutt. Impudence? As the first few minutes tick by you begin to wonder -- is this a con game, a thriller, a whodunit? Or just a case of missing diamonds, first dug deep into the ground, then dug out. Here the beauty lies in the frames, and some very soothing comic situations between Dutt and Warsi. Director Raj Kaushal's film which is quite good to look at, could do with some editing. So, should one watch "Anthony Kaun Hai"? Well, go ahead.
