Writer-director Neeraj Vora's "Short Kut - The Con Is On" might not have struck the best chord with critics and audiences, but he is all praise for Arshad Warsi's acting skills.

"Arshad is a fantastic improviser...he doesn't waste a situation and comes out instantly with an apt performance to make up for anything gone wrong on the sets," Vora told IANS.

"I know that because I'm also an improviser and so we gel very well," he added.

Also starring Akshaye Khanna and Amrita Rao, the film was panned by the critics.
