Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, who will next star in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Leo, recently opened up about his life in jail. In a rare interview, he talked about the difficult time, the actors who visited him and his learning curve throughout those five years after an 18-month trial.
During the episode of Star vs Food Survival, Sanjay Dutt recalled the ‘difficult time in his life’ whilst he was in jail. He shared, “The first time I went to jail if you see the photographs outside Thane jail – Anna, Akshay, Ajay, Shah Rukh, everybody came and wished me well.”
He added, “I had no respite from serving jail time, so why overthink it? I had to make up my mind that yes I had to go. I have to face it. In six years, I faced it, managed it, made the most out of it, and learned from it. I used that time to learn cooking, scriptures, and working out. I came out with a better physique.”
