Clad in ‘#duttsTHEway’ T-shirts, Ranbir, Sonam, Hirani and the cast & crew popped the champagne and cut a cake on sets with a small party. The film which took over a year in the making is now headed to the post-production stage for its release on June 29, 2018.

Word on the street is, Ranbir and Munnabhai, a.k.a. Sanjay himself will be seen in together in the promotional video.

Hirani, who is one of B-town’s most successful filmmakers, is keen to get the audience to know Dutt in a closer way and what better than over some great candid conversation! This video will help set the tempo of the film and is sure to be a huge draw.Sanjay and Ranbir, who essays him onscreen, will indulge in a freewheeling chat about life, and we can be sure that it is going to be engaging from word go. Dutt is known to never mince words, whether good or bad, and does not believe in avoiding uncomfortable questions about his tumultuous life.

Earlier, the actor spoke about playing Sanjay, “We worked really hard at it, doing four months of prosthetic (make-up) trials, lots of disappointments, thinking that it’s not going to work out. But you need to put in that time and effort. It’s a daunting task to play someone like Sanjay Dutt, who everybody knows anyway.”

And to add it all, on playing Sanjay in front of Sanjay, Ranbir had to say, “It was surreal for me. You’re acting like him, and the director calls cut, you look up, and suddenly there’s Sanjay Dutt actually sitting behind the monitor! But then I’d got so obsessed with him. Every time I’d see him, I’d start observing him like a hawk — the way he scratches his beard twitches his eye, drinks water, hugs… It’d become a bit of a sickness for me. But that obsession is necessary for acting, or any form of art — that madness to get something right. You may still fall flat on your face, but it’s necessary.”
