Sanju: Not Ranbir Kapoor but producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra wanted to cast this star in Rajkumar Hirani's Sanjay Dutt biopic

The whole Bollywood industry is very excited and now the fans are just waiting 29th June to release Sanjay Dutt biopic. Everyone is praising Rajkumar Hirani's film trailer and especially Ranbir Kapoor's transformation for the role. Since the trailer has come out people are saying that there will no better choice than Ranbir Kapoor to play this role.

Since Rajkumar Hirani started writing the script of Sanju, he kept Ranbir Kapoor in mind to play this role. But the producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra was not ready to take Ranbir Kapoor in this biopic. The producer in the recent interview revealed that he felt Ranbir was not good choice to play Sanjay Dutt.

Pinkvilla quoted Vidhu Vinod Chopra by saying, “It was Raju’s idea to cast Ranbir. When he told me about Ranbir, I wasn’t happy at all. I thought someone else, like Ranveer Singh, could play this role much better. I thought Ranveer had the flamboyance, the emotional depth as well as the ability to change himself completely to play Sanjay Dutt. But Raju was adamant that Ranbir would be perfect. And when we started shooting and Ranbir became Sanjay Dutt, I had to kind of eat my words. I think I can best sum this up by saying that Ranbir has become Sanjay Dutt both in swagger and soul.”
