Sanjay Dutt with his wife Maanyata and their children Shahraan and Iqra.
Actor Sanjay Dutt, who recently walked out of jail after completing his sentence in an arms case related to the 1993 Mumbai blasts, revealed that he wrote over 500 sher (couplets) while in prison. The actor plans to release the poetry collection in form of book titled Salaakhen.
"I wrote something. And I will release the book, Salaakhen. We will show it to some people. Me along with, Zeishan Qureshi, Sameer Hingle (inmates) and wrote 500 sher they were with me in radio station. It is all in Hindi," Mr Dutt said.
The Munna Bhai actor said out of the 500 couplets, he has written about 100 couplets and has also described some of the real life instances like the one when his wife, Maanyata visited him in jail.
"Out of the 500 sher I must have written 100 or so. At times I feel surprised that have I actually written this. I remember my wife had come to meet me once and she had fever and still she came to see me. I insisted she should come to meet me. I felt very bad after seeing her," he said.
"Then I wrote a sher - Aankhon mein nami thi, badan tap raha tha, phir bhi hoton pe hasi thi aur baaton mein pyaar tha. Aapko dekh ke dukh hua par khushi bhi hui, ussi khushi ke saath paigam bhi tha ke aap mujhse mohabbat karte ho."
But writing is not something that actor is willing to take up permanently and he is waiting eagerly to get back to the routine life of 'lights, camera, action'.
"Let me be with my family. I want to be with them for some time. I missed working. I missed light, sound, camera, action flashes and all," Sanjay Dutt said.
Though Sanjay Dutt is yet to talk about the films he would be doing, it is confirmed that he will is working in director Siddharth Anand's next, an action drama which is likely to go on floors this summer. This is most likely to be the first film that Mr Dutt will shoot after his release.
He will be seen in the third installment of much-loved Rajkumar Hirani-helmed Munna Bhai series.
Mr Dutt's close friend, director Rajkumar Hirani is also currently working on the biopic which stars Ranbir Kapoor in the lead role.
Director Indra Kumar also plans to make the third part of the Dhamaal franchise with the actor.
