But the impact that Sanjay Dutt creates in any film is there for us all to see. Films like KGF 2, Leo, and Double Ismart have gone to the next level, thanks to the Munna Bhai MBBS star. Sanjay Dutt is doing films in multiple languages and is mostly seen in South films as he is getting bigger and better roles as a villain.
The news is also that Sanjay Dutt is in talks for a few other Telugu films. For now, we need to see if the makers of Raja Saab sign him for their biggie or look for someone else. Malavika Mohanan plays the female lead in this film, which is being produced by UV Creations. Close to 40% of the shoot has been wrapped up already.
