Sanjay was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in August 2020 at that time he was shooting for a film. The director of the film in an interview told that Sanjay filmed certain portions of the movie without letting anyone know about his illness.
Speaking about Sanjay Dutt’s battle with cancer the director said, “The news that Sanjay sir had been diagnosed with cancer came to all of us like a huge shock. We had no idea about it. He was talking, behaving, and working as if nothing has happened. I guess that’s why he is where he is today, having conquered this too. Sanjay sir doesn’t let anything get the better of him. He is an inspiration on the sets for everyone.”
Karan also speaks about Sanjay Dutt's attitude as a conquer he said,“Having given so many years of his life to his craft, Sanjay sir leads from the front and his demeanour shows us all how to conduct ourselves on the set. He went about shooting Shamshera with the attitude that there is nothing he can’t conquer. He never mentioned what he was going through personally. He kept the mood on the set light. There is no one like him. I’m indebted for his support towards Shamshera. He is a constant guide and a mentor to me.”
Besides Sanjay Dutt, the period action film also features Ranbir Kapoor and Vaani Kapoor in the lead roles. The movie is all set to hit the big screens on July 22.
