Munnabhai Chale Amerika Movie Begins Next Year Munnabhai Chale Amerika

Arshad Warsi, the Bollywood actor whose character ‘Circuit’ has been quite a hit in the two hit Munnabhai comedy films, says part three will go on the floors in 2010.

"'Munnabhai Chale Amerika' will go on the floors next year and we'll start shooting then onwards," Arshad said.

The actor, who will repeat his role as the rough, but loveable goon in the movie, also said that "everything", including the script, "is ready for the film".

Produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, the third part of the series will once again be directed by Rajkumar Hirani who directed the first two films, "Munnabhai MBBS" (2003) and "Lage Raho Munna Bhai" (2006).

The film was delayed after Sanjay Dutt, who essayed the title role of Munnabhai, was convicted for illegal possession of arms in connection with the 1993 Mumbai blasts. But now the actor is out on bail.

While Sanjay Dutt played the title role, Arshad was seen as his accomplice and their onscreen chemistry and comic timing succeeded in providing lots of laughter to the audience.

Arshad's next movie is "Short Kut - The Con Is On" that releases on July 10. Produced by Anil Kapoor, the film has been directed by Neeraj Vora and also stars Akshaye Khanna and Amrita Rao.

After the success of the Munnabhai series, Arshad has mostly been seen in comedies like "Golmaal: Fun Unlimited", "Sunday", "Dhamaal", and "Golmaal Returns".

When asked if doing comedies was a deliberate choice, he said, "There's nothing I can do. I don't have a choice. Most of the scripts I get are comedy scripts. There are hardly any serious films coming my way. I'm a pretty good actor and I'm comfortable with both serious and comedy films. I'm not deliberately doing comedies."

Despite a mixed career with a subdued initial start, Arshad said, "I'd never regret anything in life".
