Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt to Launch the Dutt Biopic Teaser During Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad IPL Match?

Rumour has it that Rajkummar Hirani, Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt will unveil the teaser of the Dutt biopic during an IPL match between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 24, 2018. According to a report in mid-day, the makers are planning to launch the teaser on a leading channel that airs the cricket match. The producers have also planned a 30-minute talk show, which will see Sanjay Dutt and Ranbir Kapoor in conversation. A source informed a daily, “The 30-minute chat will be moderated by Hirani. While Ranbir will talk about slipping into the character and the challenges they faced while shooting, Sanjay will speak about how he was surprised to see Ranbir’s transformation. Hirani will also shed light on how difficult it was to pen an engrossing script, especially since Sanjay’s life has been widely covered by the press. The officials at Fox Star have already started a dialogue with the channel for this.”

“The idea is to ensure that the teaser reaches as many people across the country as possible, which explains the launch on the cricket pitch as well,” the source added. Sounds pretty interesting, no?

The Dutt biopic is a film that all Ranbir fans are eagerly waiting for. He is one actor who puts his blood and sweat in every character her portrays onscreen and the world knows how much of an effort he has put in to play his part in the biopic. In a recent interview, Ranbir talked about his experience while essaying the character of Sanjay Dutt. He revealed, "I am really keeping my fingers crossed for Sanjay Dutt biopic, it was an altogether different experience shooting for the film. I can't imagine and believe how much can a man go through hell in one life. He has paid for his deeds, made mistakes and got everything in this life. While filming there were times when I would observe him a lot, talk and walk like him but then I started to distance myself from him. After the image and look of Sanjay Dutt was released it was appreciated, but the role that I am portraying is not an act. I hope everyone likes it."
