Sanjay Dutt opens up about his battle with cancer; says, “If I’m supposed to die, I will just die but I don’t want any treatment”

Opening up about how he was told of his cancer diagnoses, Sanjay recently revealed to ETimes, “I had a backache and was treated with hot water bottle and pain-killers until one day I couldn't breathe. I was taken to the hospital but the thing was that the cancer news was not broken to me properly. My wife, my family or my sisters, nobody was around me that time. I was all alone and suddenly this guy comes and tells me 'you have cancer'.”

Further that actor shared that after being aware of his condition, he preferred to die rather than take chemotherapy, he said, "My wife was in Dubai, so Priya (sister Priya Dutt) came to me. My first reaction was that, once you hear something like this, your whole life reflects back at you. I have a history of cancer in my family. My mom died of pancreatic cancer; my wife (Richa Sharma) died of brain cancer. So, the first thing I said was that I don't want to take chemotherapy. If I'm supposed to die, I will just die but I don't want any treatment."

Maanayata had penned down a powerful note around the release of KGF 2. She wrote, “The film has been a special journey for us in more ways than one. All those who have often labelled him as irresponsible, non-committed and a bad boy must watch this film to see his determination, dedication and commitment. Sanju shot this film during the most vulnerable phase of his life... our lives. He shot uncomplainingly, all those strenuous scenes with the same passion as ever," she wrote.
