Sanjay Dutt is back

Sanjay Dutt is already on a mission to retrieve his position in Bollywood. The 48-year-old actor is having high-profile meetings to finalise his future films. The buzz is that his latest conquest is Vishal Bharadwaj's much-talked-about film, Julia, which is based on the life and times of famous Indian actress and stuntwoman of the '30s, Marry Ann Evans aka Fearless Nadia. A source close to the actor says, "He has agreed to do the film in principle. But we're yet to finalise the details."

The story goes that Vishal Bharadwaj and Sanjay Dutt had a couple of meetings in the past. After a detailed script narration, an impressed Dutt had readily agreed to do the film. However, he was pre-occupied with the court proceedings then and had refused to commit any dates. From what we hear, he has resumed fresh talks with the producers UTV Motion Pictures. If all goes well, he will be paired opposite Run Lola Run actress Franka Potente, who was recently in the city to undergo a customary screen test. …

Julia is set in the 1930s Bollywood and has been written in collaboration with Matthew Robbins, who has written The Sugarland Express and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, in the past. Bharadwaj had once referred to the film as 'an out and out entertainer' in one of his rare interviews. Speculations are rife that director Bharadwaj is also in talks with a bunch of actors including Ajay Devgan and Kareena Kapoor for other roles in the film. ….read more
