The actor apart from being busy with a number of other projects, also had to go on a brief break to recuperate from an unspecified health issue

Isn't it strange that Sanjay Dutt is rarely seen promoting his upcoming film Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster 3, which is only within a stone's throw away from release? Well, Munna Bhai has lately been shuttling between Lucknow and Mumbai and has no time for the promotions of the film, Rahul Mittra, the film's producer told mid-day. 

But the makers of the film do not have a problem with that as they are considerate enough to understand that Sanjay Dutt is on a chock-a-block work schedule. "Sanju has a busy schedule. He has been shooting back-to-back- first Torbaaz and now, Prassthanam," Rahul told the tabloid. 

Engulfed by a hectic schedule, the 58-year-old actor had to go on a brief break to recuperate from an unspecified health issue during his stay in Lucknow, for which he's currently making up. "He also fell sick during the Lucknow leg of Prassthanam shoot. So he had to put in more time to compensate for the days lost," the producer added. 

Even with the crammed timetable, the Vaastav actor is vigorously promoting Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster 3 on social media. "Besides promoting the film on social media, he also attended an event in Lucknow last week. We celebrated presenter Raju Chadha's birthday in Delhi yesterday for which he flew in. He'll also be attending an event today," the daily quoted Rahul as saying. 

Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster 3 also stars Jimmy Sheirgill, Chitrangda Singh and Mahie Gill.  

Directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia, Soha Ali Khan also stars in the movie in an extended cameo of sorts. The film is slated to release on July 27.

Apart from Torbaaz, Prassthanam and Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster 3, Sanjay Dutt also has films like Panipat and Kalank in the pipeline.
