This Was Nargis' Last Message To Sanjay Dutt From Her Deathbed...
In a video that is doing the rounds of social media, we hear Nargis Dutt’s final message for Sanjay Dutt from a hospital in New York. The legendary actress died of pancreatic cancer three days before her son’s Bollywood debut
It is
well-known that Nargis played a vital role in helping Sanjay Dutt fight drug
addiction. In a 1991 interview that has surfaced on social media, Sanjay talks
about coming to terms with his mother’s death. The legendary actress succumbed
to cancer just 3 days before the actor’s debut –Rocky – released.
“When my
mother died, I did not cry, had no emotions – nothing. It was after 2 years
that I was sitting in this group that all of a sudden this guy started playing
the tape,” Sanjay said. The actor was referring to his mother’s last words to
him from her deathbed. He admits that after listening to the audio recording,
“he burst into tears and cried and cried for hours.”
The voice
message said, “More than anything, Sanju, keep your humility. Keep your
character. Never show off. Always be humble and always respect the elders. That
is the thing that is going to take you far, and that is going to give you
strength in your work.”
Watch the video below:
The tape is
also one of the high points of Rajkumar Hirani’s Sanju – Sanjay Dutt’s biopic.
It showcases how Sanjay (Ranbir Kapoor) didn’t remember her mother’s (essayed
by Manisha Koirala) last actions as he was under the influence of drugs. Years
later, when his father Sunil Dutt (played by Paresh Rawal) plays the tape that
he decides to fight addiction.
However, as
Hirani stated, certain creative liberties have been taken in Sanju and the
audio message one hears in the film is completely different.
Nargis was
51 when she passed away.
