Arshard Warsi
As Anil Kapoor gets ready to release his next home production Short Kut- The Con Is On, everyone associated with the film is very excited that the film starring Akshaye Khanna, Amrita Rao and Arshard Warsi is about to hit the theatres.
But, apart from expressing happiness over the fact that the film is complete and ready for release, Arshard Warsi is slightly upset (sad but not angry) over the fact that an important scene featuring him has been deleted during the final editing.
Ashard, who plays a struggling Bollywood actor in the film, had a unique comic scene in Short Kut- The Con Is On, where he was to be interviewed by the actress of yesteryears Simi Garewal. The entire scene was based on the popular Television show hosted by Simi Garewal, which was aired by a private Television channel, a couple of years back.
Apart from the fact that Arshard was extremely fond of the scene since it highlighted his strong point – comedy, the scene was also important since, even if it was for two minutes, it would have brought back Simi Garewal on big screen after a gap of almost 23 years.
But, unfortunate, when the makers of Short Kut- The Con Is On, saw the final copy of the film, they realized that it was far too long to let the viewers hold on to their seats. So, when the final editing took place, the scene had to be removed from the film.
Hopefully apart from the deleted scene with Simi, the film will have other comic scenes, which will compensate for the deleted scene. At least that’s what Ashard must be hoping for. And as far as Simi is concerned, she will need to wait a little long to return on silver screen.
