Popcorn Entertainment Producer Suniel Shetty talks about Sanjay Dutt and his upcoming film, “Initially Ekta and I wanted to focus on one aspect of crime and smuggling in the 1980’s, but now we’re taking into account the whole era and ethos leading up to terrorism and international terrorism in current times. Whereas Baba (Sanjay) is concerned, he is the sole actor that suits the role and both of us wanted him in the film. He’s also starring in our next film Gen Next.”
