Sanjay Dutt was spotted travelling with his friend Paresh Ghelani, who is the inspiration behind the character of 'Kamli' in Sanju, the recently released biopic on the actor. Mr Ghelani, who is settled in US, walked with Sanjay Dutt as they entered the airport, without giving two hoots about the paparazzi clicking their pictures. In Sanju, Ranbir Kapoor plays the titular role while Kamli aka Kamlesh Kanhaiyalal Kapasi's role was played by Vicky Kaushal, who has received critical acclaim for his fine acting skills. Speaking about Mr Ghelani, Vicky said in a previous interview during the film's promotion: "Primarily there is a guy whose name is Paresh. He lives in the US. They have been friends for 30-40 years, they are more like brothers. For the film, this character is an amalgamation of three or four other friends of Sanju sir. People who know Sanju sir, they would know this is Pariya. So it's a fictionalized character but much closer to Pariya."
