Ishq

Ishq or išq (Arabic: عشق‎); (Urdu: عشق‎); (Persian: عشق‎‎) in classical Arabic, literally means 'love'. Ishq does not appear in the Quran, which instead uses the verb habba (حَبَّ) and its derivatives, for example the noun hubb (حُبّ). Moreover, in Modern Arabic the relevant terms dominantly used are: habba and its derived forms hubb, habib, mahbub, etc. The word is derived from ‘ashiqah, a vine: the common belief is that when love takes its root in the heart of a lover, everything other than God is effaced. The term "Ishq" is excessively used by Sufis in their poetry and literature to describe their selfless and 'burning love for Allah'. It is the core concept in the doctrine of Islamic mysticism as it is the key to the connection between man and God. Ishq itself was the basis of 'creation'.

Etymology

In the most languages such as Dari: eshq; in Pashto: eshq; in Turkish: in Somali: caashaq or (cishqi); aşk and in Azerbaijani: eşq), in modern Persian as ešq or eshgh عشق, it literally means "love". ešq (عشق) used in Persian and Arabic ('išq), may have an Indo-European origin. and may be related to Avestan iš- "to wish, desire, search", aēša- "desire, search", išaiti "he wishes", išt "wished for, beloved", išti- "aspiration, aim", and suggests that it derives from *iška. Avestan iš- is cognate with Sanskrit eṣ- "to wish, strive for, seek", icchā- "wish, desire", icchati "seeks for, wishes", iṣta- "beloved, sought", iṣti- "search, desire", Pali icchaka- "wishing, desirous". Note also that this word exists in Middle Persian in the form of išt "desire", as attested by Farahvaši.

Anthony Kaun Hai?

Anthony Kaun Hai? (Who is Anthony?) is a Bollywood mystery film directed by Raj Kaushal and produced by Nikhil Panchamiya. It encompasses the genres of action, thriller and comedy and stars Arshad Warsi, Sanjay Dutt, Minissha Lamba and Raghuvir Yadav in the lead.

Synopsis

Small-time crook, Champak Chaudhary alias 'Champ' (Arshad Warsi) forges passports, photographs, and deeds in Thailand. He is arrested by the police, tried and sentenced to six months in jail. This is where he meets a supposedly mute and deaf inmate, Raghu Sharma (Raghuvir Yadav), serving a life sentence for stealing diamonds. Champ finds out that Raghu is not deaf nor mute and offers him a share if he springs him out of prison; Champ agrees. As soon as Champ's term is over, he gets discharged and prepares forged release documents for Raghu and gets him 'legally' out of jail.

The two then hide in a house deep in the country, where Raghu is re-united with his daughter, Jia (Minissha Lamba). Champ arranges for two fake passports for him and Raghu and get them two new identities: While he is now Anthony Gonzales, Raghu and Jia get Muslim names. Things do not go exactly as planned as Raghu is killed. Champ and Jia decide to part ways. But when Jia tells Champ she knows where the diamonds are buried, they agree on a partnership. Jia takes him where her dad had buried them — right in the compound of a penitentiary! While Champ plans to break back into prison, an underworld Don, orders his Assassin Munnabhai (Sanjay Dutt) to get hold of Anthony Gonzales and kill him — as Anthony has evidence that may link him to the murder of a young woman. Champ, who is now officially known as Anthony, will now use all the resources available to stay alive and, if possible, get the diamonds from the prison compound.

Sanjay Dutt

Sanjay Balraj Dutt (born 29 July 1959) is an Indian film actor and producer known for his works in Bollywood. Dutt, son of veteran Hindi film actors Sunil Dutt and Nargis Dutt, made his acting debut in 1981. Since then he has acted in more than hundred Hindi films. Although Dutt has enjoyed great success in movie genres ranging from romance to comedy, it has been the roles of gangsters, thugs and police officers in films that belong to the action genre that have won Dutt much adulation, with fans and Indian film critics alike referring to him as the "Deadly Dutt," for his larger-than-life portrayals of such characters. In a film career spanning more than thirty five years, Dutt has garnered two Filmfare Awards, two IIFA Awards, two Bollywood Movie Awards, three Screen Awards, three Stardust Awards, a Global Indian Film Award and, a Bengal Film Journalists' Association Award.

Dutt was arrested under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act in April 1993, due to illegal possession of a 9mm pistol and a Type 56 assault rifle. After spending 18 months in jail, he was granted bail in April 1995. In July 2007 he was sentenced to six years rigorous imprisonment, including his previous term of 18 months. The Supreme Court of India, in a judgement on 21 March 2013, convicted Dutt of illegal possession of arms relating to the 1993 Mumbai blasts case and sentenced him to five years imprisonment which is likely to get over on 25 February 2016.
