Sanjay Dutt talks about his equation with late Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray

The biopic of Shiv Sena chief late Bal Thackeray has now become a topic of discussion. The film titled as ‘Thackeray’ is slated to release on January 25 in both Hindi and Marathi. And, we all know that Bal Thackeray and Dutt family shared a strong bond. It was widely reported that Sanjay Dutt and Thackeray family shared a good equation.

On January 23, Shiv Sena will celebrate the 93rd birth anniversary of Balasaheb Thackeray. On this special occasion, a special show ‘Mancha Mujra’ will air on TV. Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt had some very nice things to say about the late leader and got nostalgic.

Sanjay Dutt revealed that his mother Nargis used to call Balasaheb her brother. He also revealed that the Shiv Sena chief used to send him messages during the time he was in jail.

It is to be noted that Sanjay Dutt was arrested on charges of illegally possessing weapons after the 1993 serial bomb blasts. At that time Sanjay Dutt’s father Sunil Dutt sought the help of Balasaheb. The ‘Munna Bhai M.B.B.S’ actor further revealed that Bal Thackeray was very close to the other members of his family too.

Notably, Bollywood star Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be seen playing a titular role in ‘Thackeray’ while veteran actress Amrita Rao will be seen portraying the role of his wife Meena Tai. The film is being directed by Abhijit Panse.
