Shortkut is a heart-warming, young slice-of-life
comedy about the trials and tribulations of two con artists,
a struggling director and actor and the zany situations
they face in the pursuit of their tinsel-town dreams!
The film revolves around 2 principal characters Shekher
(Akshaye Khanna), a struggling assistant director/ script-writer
and Chandu (Arshad Warsi), a struggling junior artist. A
twist of fate gets them together under one roof as they
share a room in a chawl in Mumbai. While Shekhar is supremely
talented and confident of his skills, Chandu is a buffoon,
a complete non-actor who believes he is God's gift to Bollywood!
As luck would have it, Chandu manages to steal Shekhar's
prized script and catapults to super stardom. Following
this Shekhar plunges into a phase of self-pity owing to
which his wife Mansi (Amrita Rao) also leaves him! Shattered,
Shekhar is now looking for his one chance to get even with
Chandu.
What follows is a hilarious tale of con, deceit, super-stardom
and subsequent fall. Shot in picturesque Bangkok, and featuring
Amrita Rao make-over into a hot bombshell, Short Kut comes
with a generous dose of laughs as well as emotions that
will pull your heart strings and keep you glued to your
seat!
