Sanjay Dutt’s biopic Sanju is hitting the silver screen on June 29. While everyone can't wait to see Ranbir Kapoor essay the role of Dutt and share his life story on the big screen, here comes a good news for all you Sanjay Dutt fans.
A secret that the filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani had kept guarded so far is now out there in the open! The mega-star himself, Sanjay Dutt, will be seen making a special appearance in his biopic.
Yes, that's right! Bollywood Life has shared the first still of Sanjay’s cameo in Sanju and we have it for you!
Though the news has just knocked on the door, a day before the release of the film, but it definitely adds to the excitement for the much-awaited biopic of the year.
In the picture, reel life Sanju meets the real life Sanju. Both Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt are twinning in black and looking dashing.
The two are holding a newspaper in their hand and looking at each other. It seems like the still belongs to a special song from the film. It may even be from the post-credits sequence.

In fact, the title card of the film is out there too.
Well, having the central character himself making an appearance in his biopic is exciting and odd at the same time.
Even director Rajkumar Hirani was in a dilemma as to whether include Sanjay in the film or not, but they eventually went ahead with the idea, reported Deccan Chronicle.
“It felt like an intrusion in the creative process. The minute you introduce the real character in a biopic, you provide visual proof of how far your creativity is from reality. But the makers realised that the audience would be expecting the real Sanjay Dutt to show up at least once. Besides, Ranbir was okay with it,” a source was quoted by the news daily.
Sanju also stars Paresh Rawal, Anushka Sharma, Sonam Kapoor, Dia Mirza, Karishma Tanna, Vicky Kaushal, Jim Sarbh amongst others.
