11 Important Things About Sanjay Dutt’s Life That Sanju Movie Didn’t Show

The nation is cheering for Ranbir Kapoor’s astounding performance in Sanju and Rajkumar Hirani’s flawless art of storytelling. The film has broken all records with its box-office collection on the first weekend itself. Sanju showed various aspects of Sanjay Dutt’s life. However, it didn’t cover some important parts in Sanjay Dutt’s life. The movie is all set to enter the coveted 200 crore club. There are hundreds of stories dangling around Dutt’s life. Actually, a lot of stuff has been kept away from the movie or maybe there were too many things to show on screen. Hirani and his team has kept several things away from the film. The movie also twists the story of his involvement in the 1993 Mumbai Blasts case. It shows that the actor was not involved and had no relation with the guns. It was the media who portrayed him negatively. Many chapters like his first marriage, rumoured affair with Madhuri Dixit have left untouched by the makers.

Here we list down 11 such things which remained untouched in Ranbir Kapoor starrer Sanju.
