Sanjay chooses Ash over Kangana

It is well-known fact that Sanjay Dutt has earned the title of ‘Sanju Baba’ in the industry thanks to his attitude of extending friendly help to everyone in the Bollywood fraternity and vice-versa. But this time around, Baba has backed out on a commitment that he made instantly during the time he came out on bail and went on a signing spree to ensure his visibility on the big screen. The latest is that after opting out of Sanjay Gupta’s Alibaug , the actor has now turned his back to a T-Series film that would see him pairing with Kangana Ranaut.

And apparently the reason behind is that the dates of the film were clashing with Mani Ratnam’s next that Sanjay was keen to sign and also some other projects. While an industry insider maintains that Sanjay had gone through the narration but had not officially signed the T-Series film that is to be directed by Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru, it is now believed that post-Sanjay’s exit; even Kangana is not too keen to be part of the project.

Talking about the Mani Ratnam film, Sanjay Dutt will replace South superstar Vikram for whom this was supposed to be a Bollywood debut. However with this, one fact that has resurfaced to the top is that it is Sanjay Dutt who will romance Aishwarya even as Abhishek Bachchan continues to be in the film.

And if the buzz in the industry is anything to go about, Sanjay is so enthusiastic about this project that he signed the film even without going through detailed narration. At this juncture, we wonder if it’s the idea of a Mani Ratnam film or the thought of romancing the very beautiful Ash that’s enticing for Baba. The two had earlier worked together in Hum Kissi Se Kum Nahi and Shabd.
