“All I’ve to say that Sanjay Dutt, I’ve known him for many years, close to 30-40 years, I’ve never met anyone like him, neither I think I’ll ever meet anyone like him, I think a person like him is not possible” says Vidhu Vinod Chopra.

The filmmaker also added that he has known Sanjay for many years but ever since the biopic started he came to realize he knew very little about the actor.
“I am sharing it with you; Sanjay Dutt is an exceptional human being. I’ve known him for many years now but I’ve started to know him in reality when Rajkumar Hirani started to narrate me his story. I think no one can understand Sanjay Dutt. I think I haven’t met a man like him” adds Chopra.
