Asked for his reaction on Ranbir Kapoor's performance in "Sanju", Dutt said: "Ranbir is extra-ordinary in the film. I think the film is fantastic. Rajkumar Hirani, Vicky Kaushal and everybody has done a fantastic job in it. Whatever has been the truth that has been portrayed in the film."
 
 
Sanjay Dutt, who has played the character of anti-hero in "Musafir", "Plan" "Khalnayak in his career is also playing negative role in "Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster 3". 
 
 
Asked how he manages every time to play the anti-hero so effortlessly that it remains in the minds of audience, he said: "Tishu (Tigmashu Dhulia) has written brilliant script and dialogues for this film but I think the character of a gangster lives within me (laughs).
 
 
"When I came out of jail lot of people told that we need a gangster in films. I think the character that I am playing he is very polished gangster and he is really khandani (cultured) as well, so I really had great fun while playing this character."
