Rajkumar Hirani-directed Sanju has been the cynosure of all eyes since its inception and continues to make helluva buzz. While, Sanju opened for the cinephiles today, special screenings were arranged for celebrities at two different locations in Mumbai on Thursday. And guess who were spotted entering the venue together? No, we aren't talking about Nick and Priyanka Chopra but rumoured couple Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt watched the film together. Sanjay Dutt, who was also previously spotted at a screening, attended the Thursday screening, which was held at the Yash Raj Films studios. It was a starry affair and celebrities thronged in large numbers to witness Sanjay Dutt's biopic onscreen. Aamir Khan, who has worked with Rajkumar Hirani in films like PK and 3 Idiots, didn't miss the screening of Sanju. The actor attended the screening with Kiran Rao and son Junaid. Here are photos from Sanju screening.
A R Rahman, Subhash Ghai, Arshad Warsi, Javed Jaffrey, Meghna Gulzar, Sidharth Roy Kapoor , Fatima Sana Sheikh, Zaheer Khan, Sagarika Ghatge, Javed Akhtar, Shabana Azmi and Imtiaz Ali were among others who attended the screening:
The second screening was held in PVR Mumbai, which was attended by singer Papon, Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan and Sukhwinder Singh. Paresh Rawal also attended the screening in PVR.
Celebrities, who watched the film, were bowled over by Ranbir Kapoor's acting prowess and Rajkumar Hirani's direction. This is how they reacted after watching Sanju:
