Ranbir insists the film is not a propaganda to show Sanjay as an innocent man. “He hasn’t been a hypocrite about it (his life). So it’s not a propaganda film trying to portray him as God or something. We are trying to show a very human side of Sanjay Dutt, his perils, his downfall, his will to fight, his time in jail, terrorism charges, his drug phase, how he handled his mother’s death two days before the release of his debut film, his relationship with his father. These were human conflicts in his life,” Ranbir had told PTI.

6. How Ranbir prepared for the rolen very important?

Ranbir focussed more on the inner and outter struggles of his character than his muscles. "Getting the look right is very superficial, it is easy as you have help from make-up and computer graphics. To show Sanjay Dutt as a human being, as a biopic only works when you show the human side of a person, and not the glories but the downfall as well ,” Ranbir clarifies.
