Sanjay Dutt's biopic has been making headlines for quite some time now. The latest buzz is that Amitabh Bachchan will play Sanjay's father, Sunil Dutt, on-screen.
Sanjay, who shares a close bond with the Bachchan family, is keen to rope in Big B as his father in the movie, which will feature Ranbir Kapoor as the actor.
A friend of the Dutts said, "Sanju has always been very close to the entire Bachchan family. He considers Abhishek his younger brother and Bachchan Saab a father figure. When the casting of Sanju's father was being considered, the Big B was the unanimous decision."
Director Rajkumar Hirani too feels that Big B is one actor who can portray Dutt Saab's warm persona on-screen.
Sanjay's friend said, "Raju Hirani has the highest regard for Dutt Saab. He feels no actor can portray his integrity, dignity and warm persona better than Mr Bachchan. Also the fact that Raju has never worked with Bachchan Saab is another big incentive."
So Ranbir as Sanjay and Big B as Sunil Dutt. Are you excited for this movie?
