Sanjay Dutt recently revealed that his twins with Maanayata Dutt - Shahraan and Iqra - have never seen their grandparents - late legendary actors Sunil Dutt and Nargis. In a new interview, Sanjay has revealed that his kids like to watch his biopic, Sanju, because it shows his parents as well.
“Their all-time favourite is the film Sanju! Unfortunately, they haven't met their grandparents. Seeing that film, they felt close and connected to them, especially Shahraan has so many questions to ask about his grandparents,” he told Filmfare Middle East as the actor featured on the magazine's cover along with wife Maanayata and kids Shahraan-Iqra.
For the unversed, in Sanju, Paresh Rawal played the role Sunil Dutt while Manisha Koirala played Nargis. Sanjay's role was played by Ranbir Kapoor in the film while Dia Mirza played his wife, Maanayata Dutt. Sanju was directed by Rajkumar Hirani and was a hit at the box office.
When asked which of his three kids is most likely to become an actor, Sanjay said, “I just want all my three children to be happy and passionate about whatever they do. I am still acting today because I truly love what I do and I want the same for them. Between them- Trishala is a psychiatrist and is doing so well as a counsellor. She loves her work and I am so proud of her. Between my younger two, Shahraan is bent towards football. In fact, he recently fractured his foot while playing. Right now, he's passionate about the game, but I still feel he has all the makings of an actor - he's observant, intelligent, loves dancing and can charm people with his humour. Iqra is more of an artist - her paintings are incredible and so beautiful. It's hard to believe someone her age could paint so beautifully!” Sanjay also has a daughter named Trishala, who is his oldest child, with his late first wife Richa Sharma.
