‘Dutt’s’ The Request: Sanjay Wants Hirani To Release His Biopic’s Trailer On The Day Rocky Released!

For all those Ranbir Kapoor fans who are eagerly waiting to see him in the Sanjay Dutt biopic, here’s some great news. According to reports online, the trailer of Sanjay Dutt biopic film might release on May 8.

If reports in DNA are to be believed, Sanju is keen that the film’s trailer comes out on May 8 because of emotional reasons. “Sanjay started his career with Rocky, which released on May 8, 1981. Naturally, the date is very important and memorable for him,” told a source to the leading daily.

Rocky is extremely close to Sanjay Dutt’s heart because it was not only his debut film but was also directed by his father, late Sunil Dutt. However, they didn’t share the screen space in the film.

Rocky is also memorable to Sanjay Dutt as the movie released just five days after his mother, Nargis passed away (May 5). Reportedly, on the day of the screening, they had left a seat vacant in the theatre in her memory at the premiere of the film. Both, Sunil and Sanjay Dutt, are known to have broken down when the latter appeared on the screen because the most important woman in their lives had just passed away.


We were the first ones to exclusively tell you that the release date of the Ranbir Kapoor starrer has been pushed ahead. The biopic is running late by 4 months and will not release on March 30. The venture will now hit theatres in August. “The Sanjay Dutt biopic is yet to be completed. Rajkumar Hirani is making sure the film is as close to reality as possible since he is portraying a complex life on-screen and is thus taking it slow. He knows he has a huge responsibility,” a source informed SpotboyE.com.
