In the promotional event for his upcoming movie, Ranbir said that Sanjay would call and shout at him for doing ‘bad films‘.
“When I was working in Barfi and Rockstar, I used to work out in his (Sanjay’s) gym. He used to tell me, ‘Tu do saal se yahan gym kar raha hai. Par Teri body Kahan hai (You have been working out for the past two years, but your body doesn’t show it)?’ He would also ask me, ‘Tu Abhi Barfi Kar Raha hai (Right now you are doing Barfi). What is your next film then? Peda? Laddu?’”
Ranbir said about Sanjay Dutt that he has always had his back. He’s pleased and proud of everything that he has done. Ranbir says that Sanjay Dutt has always been an inspiration for him to do films of a different nature, and also films that speak to a larger audience.
