(Though I love Indian film music very much, the main factor in films for me is the story and the way it's told. So that's the reason why the music is not very present in my reviews - often without deserving it, as I have to admit.)

Rocky - Naam - Hathyar (1989) - Saajan - Sadak - KhalNayak - Vaastav - Kaante - Munnabhai MBBS
(as quoted in Filmfare 10/2005; today he'd definitely add Lage Raho Munnabhai as that is his favorite, plus Lamhaa and Agneepath.)

Sanjay Dutt - Production Banners
White Feather Films (2000-2007)
Sanjay Dutt Productions (since 2007)


In 2000 and alongside with director Sanjay Gupta, Sanjay Dutt founded the production house White Feather Films Pvt Ltd, a banner which the two friends in the following years fostered together. With Shootout At Lokhandwala, White Feather Films started an association with Balaji Telefilms in May 2007. In August 2007, another co-production, marketing and distribution deal with Eros International was announced; first common produczion: Dus Kahaniyaan. In June 2007, Dutt and Gupta launched the branch White Feather Arthouse Films which is going to produce non-commercial art and experimental movies. Shortly thereafter, Sanjay Dutt resigned as the chairman of White Feather Films, officially due to legal problems because of his court cases. But if rumours are to be believed, the true reason was because he couldn't stand that people who worked for White Feather Films didn't get paid their fees. And I tend to believe this after Sanjay launched his own production house, which shows that obviously his legal hassles are no real hinder for him to work as a producer. Not to mention some shocking revelations in Filmfare 1/2008 which, if they are true, leave no question marks about why Sanjay left Gupta and WFF.

In September 2007, Sanjay Dutt announced
to launch his own production house called Sanjay Dutt Film Productions Pvt Ltd. It says that he wants to merge his late dad Sunil Dutt’s defunct production house Ajanta Arts into his company, and that Sanjay's sisters Priya and Namrata will also be involved in the company.

Sanjay Dutt - Film Trivia



Unfinished and shelved film projects with Sanjay Dutt


Many film plans with Sanjay were never made (most prominent example: Mukul S Anand's DUS). I collected some of these projects but of course, this list can never claim to be a complete one.



Sanjay Dutt in the unfinished movie Dus (1997)


Films considered to be made with Sanjay Dutt but finally made without him


Some film projects with Sanjay Dutt, as shown, were never made or finished. Some, on the other hand, were finally shot but without him. Also here I collected a few of them but again, this list doesn’t claim to be complete...

The "Hair-Style Factor"

In the end of 1988 Sanju decided to say good-bye to his old hair-style à la Paul McCartney which mostly made him look too nice and harmless for the tough image he developed at that time. So he started experimenting with different hair-styles and growing his hair until he got a long mane which – I cannot help but admit it – made him look simply gorgeous. There was just the problem that in those times it was usual that stars made many movies at the same time so the shooting of one movie could well take serveral years. As Sanju was continuously working in many projects and, adding to that, had to make a long break after his lung collapse in 1987 which delayed some of his films even more, his hair-style and hair-length changes permanently within his movies after 1989 (so you can even conclude which scenes from which movies were shot at the same time). But who cares if the hair-style changes even several times within a single scene as long as Sanju with his long mane is looking so mindblowing attractive!


Sanjay Dutt in Saajan

The same game continued in the years 1996 to 2000. After his release from jail Sanju got his hair cut short but only to immediately starting with his hair experiments again. Unfortunately in some movies like Kartoos, Safari and Khauff Sanju is to be seen in a few scenes with a very unbecoming hair-style – pony toddles, over the ears half long and in the neck long toddly hair extension (yes, I bet it was artificial) – sorry, Sanju, you know I love you, but this one looked terrible. Fortunately, he obviously realised soon that he should not appear in fornt of a camera like that... In the end of 1997 Sanju said good-bye to his long mane once and forever (in Dushman he was, even if just in two scenes, to be seen with short hair again for the first time since the early nineties). But as even then film shootings could take several years there was again a space until 2000 to show Sanju with changing hair-styles in his movies (a very good example is Khauff).

So don’t wonder if you watch a Sanju movie where his hair-length alters from scene to scene. Just accept it and say, Tathastu - So be it.
