Actor Ranbir Kapoor will essay Sanjay Dutt in the latter’s biopic to be helmed by Rajkumar Hirani. RK is known to put his sweat into perfecting the role and therefore, is looking to spend time with Dutt for the same. However, Sanjay confessed he ignored Ranbir these days.
At a recent event, Sanjay said that Ranbir called him regularly and wanted to spend time with him.
“I have been trying to avoid him, it is a difficult role for him to play. He is a fine actor though,” said Sanjay.
Sanjay Dutt’s ‘Sadak’ co-star Pooja Bhatt, who was also present at the event, was quick to add that this is not how it works. She said that Ranbir should know spending time with Sanjay won’t help.
Pooja added that the new generation stars don’t speak without a PR person which wasn’t the case earlier.
“When Sanju cut his hair in that mohawk style and wore that ganji, it became a rage. I don't think that just by spending weeks with Sanjay, Ranbir will be able to play him. Maybe he needs a few more knocks,” Pooja added.
Well, now that Sanjay Dutt has admitted to avoiding Ranbir and Pooja has told what the Kapoor scion should do, let us see if he implements them. However, it would be worth adding that wanting to spend time with Sanjay might be Ranbir’s way of getting into the skin of the character.
The biopic is expected to go on floors earlier next year and will also star Anushka Sharma in the role of a scribe.
