Rajkumar Hirani puts Sanjay Dutt biopic on hold for sports drama

Apr 21, 2015 - Natasha Coutinho

Rajkumar Hirani has kept his biopic on Sanjay Dutt on hold for now, because he wants to give his complete attention to his next production Saala Khadoos.

The film is set to release soon and is a bilingual (Hindi and Tamil), sports drama, featuring R. Madhavan in the lead as a boxing coach.

A source close to Hirani reveals, "Rajkumar has been regularly conducting extensive meetings to discuss the marketing plan of the film. He has been actively involved in discussions about the pre and post-production, release and innovative promotional strategies. Hirani is keeping a daily tab on all the activities that have been scheduled for the film. Thanks to his busy schedule at the moment, the Sanjay Dutt biopic has been pushed for later."

He should just totally shelve it.
Its so strange that someone as calm and composed like Raj Kumar Hirani is friends with a criminal like Sanjay Dutt. Fine Sanjay acted in his MunnaBhai series etc. but atleast don't make a film trying to justify Sanjay's crimes and show him in a sympathetic way.
God knows how Ranbir even agreed to act in that film.
Or maybe Hirani and Ranbir are just being polite and do not want to openly reject the idea of this film. They will probably keep on postponing the shooting and eventually Sanjay Dutt will be out of jail and there will not be a need of making this movie to generate the sympathy wave that they need in order to bring him out of jail,

GOOD...might as well shelve it for a while.


He's doing a film with Madhavan? This is news to me! Yay for that! Any idea who's directing it?
