I don’t remember the last time a film made me analyse a flawed character so. It really helped that I tried to forget that this was a celebrity’s story who society has already judged one way or the other. However, like the scene, the film builds up and keeps you engaged. Only that this 2 minute 55 second scene is a 2 hour 40 minute film. But, like Sholay’s true friend, Amitabh Bachchan, Rajkumar Hirani is trying his best to convince us, the audience (mausiji) of the friend’s innocence. Our hero is a self-confessed drug addict, womanizer, listless, brazen brat. Sanju reminded me of the famous ‘ mausiji’ scene from Sholay.

I am really hoping the movie will go beyond being just another hagiographical account, that too one in which the hero of the story had many a vice. At the same time, even though we are used to Rajkumar Hirani’s films being message films, the message of this film might quickly just become, “My name is Sanjay Dutt, and I am not a terrorist.” Other than that, as intriguing as Dutt’s life has been and as balanced a view the trailer makes it out to be, maintaining that balance would be an uphill task over the length of the film.

But now, over the 2-3 hour span of the film, Ranbir Kapoor has to be able to make us forget how well he has transformed so that we feel like we are watching Sanjay Dutt himself. As a basic requirement, Ranbir Kapoor would have to look like Sanjay Dutt and be able to emulate his mannerisms. The good news is and the bad news could be that Ranbir Kapoor looks mind-blowingly like Sanjay Dutt.
