This Bollywood actor will essay the role of Sunil Dutt in Sanjay Dutt’s biopic

Actor Jackie Shroff has been roped in to essay the role of veteran actor Sunil Dutt in Sanjay Dutt’s biopic. Ranbir Kapoor wil play the role of Sanjay Dutt in this Rajkumar Hirani directorial. Jackie confirmed about the same to a popular daily.

He said, “I did the look test for the role of Sunil Dutt sahab. It’s a big thing for me that they thought of me for this role. It’s a difficult role (to play). I will try to look like him. I will try to follow his mannerisms. I have met him (Sunil Dutt) on a couple of occasions. The first time I met him was at his place when Baba (as Sanjay Dutt is fondly called) introduced me. It was a casual, normal conversation between us.”

He also added that he shared his look test pictures with Sanjay Dutt and he loved them all. However, Jackie hasn’t signed on the dotted line for the project yet, but if everything works out, then the shooting will commence from January next year. Right now, Shroff is busy with Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Sarkar 3’ that features megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the main role.
