Thank you Rajkumar Hirani for bringing this story on screen otherwise I would have never realise what actually Sanjay Dutt is. He is drinker, He is Womaniser, He is Drug Addict but he is not a Terrorist. Just like others I also hated Sanjay Dutt for his mistakes and by reading about him in Newspapers but after watching Sanju I have a respect for him, such a fighter he is, that hypocrisy of media is exposed. Said it many times, saying it again Hirani is the Best Director of Bollywood of his Generation, nobody is even close to him, Period. Delivers the 5th Consecutive Classic, a feat which no one would have ever thought of. Rajkumar Hirani's Direction is something what we admire, we don't expect anything less than a Classic from him and he does it again. Music is Decent, 'Kar Har Maidan Fateh' gives Goosebumps and works perfectly as an Inspiration song, other songs fades away very soon. Although Sanju lacks those expected Big Laugh riot scenes from a Hirani film still it has some of its own Shout out scenes but slightly in a vulgar way. Dialogues are outstanding and are loaded with the Hirani trademark such as Humour, Realism and bit tabu. Cinematography is excellent you will see some eye pleasing frames on screen. For that, credit must go to the screenplay writing which is engaged and throughout gripped. The First half is very good but that is not enough considering the high standard set by the director, then second half packs a Solid punch and recovers that burden of first half. Sanju starts slightly slow and you feel like is Hirani going to deliver something below Expectations or what? But it doesn't happen and Sanju keeps you hooked, entertains you, makes you emotional and at the end it gives you a satisfaction of watching a Worthy film. Anushka, Dia, Sonam and others have small roles and have done the expected job.

Jim Sarabh plays negative character and suits it. The surprise package here is Vicky Kaushal who Delivers a power packed performance and stands tall along with Ranbir and Paresh Rawal. Paresh Rawal has given a justice to his role and that was expected because he is one of the greatest actor in Bollywood.

Ranbir is surely going to win a bunch of awards for Sanju. All these are played by Ranbir Kapoor so perfectly that it looks like he is working in 4-5 different films at the same time, he looks like Sanju, he talks like Sanju, he walks like Sanju, he does everything like Sanju. There are so many stages and ages of Sanjay's life from a young drug addict, an upcoming superstar, then a Set Superstar, a physically fit icon and then the last one as a 50+ man i mean a current Sanjay Dutt. Ranbir Kapoor in and as Sanju Delivers a memorable and best performance of his career till date. He is a Genius and has made this not so Social film a Classic with Family Values, Friendship and Emotional bonding through his Vision. And Hirani does not disappoint and makes that faith on him much stronger with Sanju. Reviewed by SAMTHEBESTEST 8 / 10 5th Classic in a Row for Master Hirani, Best Of Ranbir!Įver since i heard about this Project I was very negative about it I was like why Hirani is making a biopic on Sanjay Dutt I mean come on he is not a legend rather he is stamped as A Criminal then why is Raju Hirani going off track keeping his social appealing films formula aside? But then I had a faith on him as he never disappointed, he must have found something interesting in Sanjay Dutt life and that's why he is making a film. Some true stories leave you thinking "did this really happen?" This is one such unbelievable story that happens to be true. It depicts the journey of a man through everything that life can throw at him. Sanju is in turns a hilarious and heartbreaking exploration of one man's battle against his own wild self and the formidable external forces trying to crush him. Coming from a family of cinema legends, he himself became a film star, and then saw dizzying heights and darkest depths: adulation of die-hard fans, unending battles with various addictions, brushes with the underworld, prison terms, loss of loved ones, and the haunting speculation that he might or might not be a terrorist. Few lives in our times are as dramatic and enigmatic as the saga of Sanjay Dutt.
