Sanjay Dutt, who was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer a few months back is determined to beat it. In a new video, the actor addressed his ailment for the first time while getting a new haircut at celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim’s salon. Sanjay informed his fans that he is already back at work and spoke about his upcoming films Shamshera and KGF Chapter 2.
In the video, Sanjay says, “Hi, this is Sanjay Dutt. Good to be back in the salon. Got a haircut. If you see this, this is a recent scar in my life, but I will beat it. I will be out of this cancer soon.” He also spoke about his special bond with Aalim and said, “Aalim and I go a long way back. His father used to cut my father’s hair. Hakim saab was the stylist in Rocky and then Aalim started cutting my hair. I became his guinea pig.” He added that he acted as a ‘guinea pig’ for Aalim who tried eccentric styles like red or even blonde highlights on him.
Sanjay said that he is growing a beard for KGF: Chapter 2, in which he plays the antagonist, Adheera. Pointing at his growing beard, he said, “I am growing this for KGF. I had shaved, but I need it for my look in KGF, which we are starting in November. I am happy to be back on the sets again. Tomorrow, I will be dubbing for Shamshera, so that will be fun. It’s good to be back.”
Sanjay also gave a shoutout to Aalim’s establishment saying that the salon is keeping all COVID-19 guidelines in place.
