In Sanju's trailer, Ranbir Kapoor takes us through Sanjay Dutt's fascinating life

Quite possibly the most awaited Bolly flick of the season, the trailer for Sanju is out now.

Ranbir Kapoor stars as Sanjay Dutt in this biopic about the latter actor's tumultuous, controversial and fascinating life; the good, the bad and the ugly.

Clearly, this is going to be the role of a lifetime for Kapoor. The movie will trace Dutt's struggle with drug addiction, his scandalous love life and his time in jail, when he was convicted for involvement in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blast case.

The film also stars Dia Mirza, Sonam Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Boman Irani among others; Tabu will be making a cameo appearance in the movie.

It is revealed that Dutt first started experimenting with drugs when he was upset with his father Sunil Dutt (Paresh Rawal) and the next time he indulged in drug abuse was when his mother Nargis (Manisha Koirala) was sick. By the third time, he was in too deep and an addict.

In another scene, Sanju is asked by a journalist (Anushka Sharma) about how many affairs he's had and he provides a "rounded off" figure of 350.

Sanju has been written and directed by Rajkumar Hirani. The film is slated to hit screens on June 29, 2018.
