Kaante

Kaante (, English: Thorns) is a 2002 Indian action film directed by Sanjay Gupta and starring Mahesh Manjrekar in his debut role with Lucky Ali, Kumar Gaurav, Sunil Shetty, Sanjay Dutt, Amitabh Bachchan, Namrata Singh Gujral, Rati Agnihotri, Malaika Arora and Isha Koppikar in the lead roles. The film's central plot is based on Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs (1992) and also borrows plot points from The Usual Suspects (1995) and Heat (1995). However, Tarantino has been quoted as saying that Kaante is his favourite among the many rip-offs of his film.
