The teaser of Prasthanam starring Sanjay Dutt was unveiled on his 60th birthday celebrated on July 29. The whole team of the film including Sanjay, Jackie Shroff, Manisha Koirala and Ali Fazal were present at the event. Moreover, even Dutt's wife Maanayata and best friend Paresh Ghelani marked their presence at the launch. Interestingly, with this film, Maanayata will be donning the hat of the producer and her name was even shown in the credits.
Talking about the same, she stated to Asian Age, "The first thing Sanju told me when I started production is to make sure that the cast and the crew are always kept happy. Being an actor’s wife, I know Sanju really gets grumpy when working with producers who are not great. So, I have to make sure even the spot boys and the crew are fed well and fed first. My husband said that at times actors don’t get to eat until 4 pm, so if the crew is fed first then they can keep the actors fed too. This is how our production has to work on."
When quizzed if she will be working with Sanjay in a film, Maanayata replied, "I am not going to act. I have my hands full as both, a mother and as a wife. I have a great family to look after, and now this production house is my new baby. I am very happy and content with all these roles that I am playing."
The banner Maanayata has taken charge of is named Sanjay Dutt Productions.
