Arshad Warsi is basking in the glorious success of 'Lage Raho Munnabhai. He also had a superhit in the form of 'Golmaal' that did exceptional business in Mumbai. Being successful is a great feeling but becoming outrageously arrogant is something that is painful both for friends-as-well-as-fans. When you see him today giving TV interviews, one can notice that devil-may-care swagger and why he didn't want to play Circuit since it was a small role (After all he came to Mumbai to become a hero how could he have played a side hero).
To add to it, Arshad has been shouting from rooftops that he had added flesh-n-blood to Circuit's character as Raju Hirani, the director had made it out to be any other crony that you see in Hindi films. Without Circuit you would have been a Nobody today Arshad. He has also been openly flaunting his Mercedes and BMW and the desire to own a Bentley one of these days. In other words he says he is a superstar and that's why he is rumouredly asking for Rs 2 crore as remuneration.
Life is made up of extremes. Sanjay Dutt on one hand is a changed man after the Munnabhai experience. He is making genuine attempts to be good-n-clean. Arshad on the other hand is riding a high horse without knowing that film world is a fickle world. Success or failure, there's no substitute for good behaviour. Look at what has happened with Vivek Oberoi. The man won all the best debutante awards and also had big films in his kitty. With a trophy girl friend by his side, he was The Man'and then he also made the mistake of calling himself a superstar. A few accidents, several flops and left-over by the same damsel-in-distress later, Vivek is a pariah star whom no one wants to touch. He had called himself media's blue eyed boy and today the same media can't stand him.
So, Mr Warsi, it would be better if you introspect and return to the ground from that high horse of fancy. And always remember the Raj Kapoor number'.Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan Iske Siva Jaana Kahan'.So wouldn't it be better if you be one-of-them or being without them in an attempt to be above them. Think Circuit'Think!
