Hirani’s biopic on Sanjay Dutt throws light on father-son relationship.

Mumbai: Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Rajkumar Hirani's biopic on Sanjay Dutt is arguably one of the most awaited films in Bollywood. Sanjay Dutt's journey has been documented in multiple ways, from being a son to Bollywood legends Nargis and Sunil Dutt, to becoming a successful hero and then turning into one of the most controversial actors in the Indian

His drug addiction and later rehabilitation, his super strong comeback from the brink of disaster, his involvement in the Bombay serial blasts, arrest under TADA (Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act), his incarceration and ultimately his release, more than suggest that had Dutt been in Hollywood there would have already been a spate of books or a television special by now.

Paresh Rawal, who is essaying the role of Sunil Dutt in the film, speaking to The Indian Express said, "It is chiefly a father-son story. The film is Sanjay Dutt and Sunil Dutt’s story."

Manisha Koirala will be playing Nargis in the film. Other actors include Dia Mirza, Karishma Tanna, Tina Munim (not an Ambani then) and Anushka Sharma, according to a Hindustan Times report.
