In an earlier interview with news agency PTI, Anushka Sharma spoke about her role in the film. "I am doing a cameo in the film but you all should be very excited for it. It will be a very good film. I am not playing his girlfriend, or a journalist, my character is the only fictional character in the film. It is not based on any living person that much I can tell," PTI quoted the
PK actress as saying.
The Sanjay Dutt biopic will focus on the actor's formative years, his relationship with father Sunil Dutt, his affairs and his struggles after the loss of his mother Nargis Dutt. In the film, Dia Mirza will be seen portraying the role of Sanjay Dutt's wife Maanyata. Manisha Koirala will feature as Nargis Dutt.
Meanwhile, Anushka Sharma's
Jab Harry Met Sejal, co-starring Shah Rukh Khan, is set to release in theatres on August 4. The film marks Anushka's third collaboration with SRK after
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) and
Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012). The duo will reportedly be seen together once again in Aanand L Rai's yet-to-be titled film.
Anushka's other upcoming projects include Navdeep Singh's
Kaneda, Sharat Katariya's
Sui Dhaaga and
Pari.
