Kancha Sanjay Dutt just can’t seem to get enough of gangster roles. After playing an underworld gangster in movies like Aatish,Vaastav, Plan and Jung, Agneepath, Sanjay Dutt will yet again be ‘don’ning the role of an underworld figure in director Soham Shah’s next venture, where he will play the role of real life Gujarat based gangster Sharman Munjha Jadeja. Incidentally, the Shabana Azmi starrer Godmother was based on the life of Munjha’s wife Santokben Jadeja.
Known as the Robin Hood of Gujarat, Sharman Munjha and his family ruled Porbandar and other areas of Gujarat in the 80s. A source was quoted to have said, “Soham came up with the idea of making a film on Sharman and Sanjay Dutt loved the idea so much that he agreed to not only act in the film, but also produce it as well.”
The film will also star Vivek Oberoi, another favourite for gangster films after movies like Company and Shootout At Lokhandwala and sources claim that the dusky dame Chitrangda Singh is likely to play the female lead.
