After a long span of seven years, Sanjay Dutt is returning to production with the remake of the 2010 Telugu hit, Prasthanam. The actor will also star in the film in the role of the lead protagonist along with Ali Fazal as his son and Amyra Dastur as Ali’s love interest. Deva Katta, who was also the director of the original movie will be directing this film as well. He has made certain changes in the script with the perspective of catering the film to a pan-India audience. The name of the movie is retained with a small change in the spelling now known as ‘Prasthaanam’. It is a political drama that is scheduled to go on floors in the first week of June in Mumbai.
Previously, Sanjay Dutt has collaborated with Sanjay Gupta on the action-thriller ‘Zinda’ (2006) as production-presenter. He has been the associate producer on Gupta’s Shootout at Lokhandwala (2007) and on ‘Dus Kahaniyaan’ in the same year. David Dhawan directed ‘Rascals’ is another production project of Sanjay Dutt from the year 2011. The original version of Sanjay’s upcoming project was a blockbuster hit down South and bagged three Filmfare awards. The story revolved around exposing the connection between politicians and businessmen.
We can’t wait to watch Sanjay Dutt don the hat of a producer and actor in Prasthanam!
