Sanjay Dutt plans to take legal action against 'unauthorised biography'

It's no secret Sanjay Dutt's lived a life worth documenting.

But Dutt isn't about to let just anyone write his story. The actor has slammed author Yasser Usman's upcoming biography on him, titled The Crazy Untold Story of Bollywood’s Bad Boy. The Khalnayak star shared that he has not authorised the memoir and also promised to release his own official autobiography soon.

“I hope better sense will prevail and there will be no further excerpts that will hurt me or my family. My official autobiography will be out soon which will be authentic and based on facts,” he said, adding that the excerpts being published are from tabloid interviews and hearsay.

He also revealed that he has consulted with his "legal team on the next course of action,"

Juggernaut Books responded with a statement that they would not be publishing any new excerpts and were “sorry to hear that Mr Sanjay Dutt was upset with the book.”

In other news, fans will soon get to see the veteran entertainer's life story on the big screen in Rajkumar Hirani's upcoming biopic starring Ranbir Kapoor as Dutt. The movie, yet to be titled, is scheduled for release on June 29.
