Recently, Dutt had opened about his cancer diagnosis for the first time. In a video shared by his hairstylist Aalim Hakim, the actor had said, “Hi, this is Sanjay Dutt! Good to be back in the salon. Got a haircut. If you see this, this is a recent scar in my life, but I will beat it. I will be out of this cancer soon.”
Pointing at his beard, he said that he was growing it for KGF: Chapter 2. He added that he had shaved, but he needed it for his look in KGF, which they were starting in November. The actor also mentioned how happy he was to be back on the sets again.
