Dutt’s keen to regain his macho image

Aug 21, 2012 - Reena Kapoor

Sanjay Dutt surprised onlookers at the international airport in Mumbai when he limped out with a walking stick. Sources close to the actor reveal that with Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar reclaiming their action hero image by re-starting the trend of action films, Dutt felt a bit weak… well, in his knees.

So the industry’s original action hero Sanju baba took stock of his physical condition and realised his knee woes need to be addressed before he puts himself through rigorous physical training that will focus on re-sculpting his muscles. “The knee was giving me a lot of trouble. But now, I should be okay. Hopefully, I’ll be able to do more action films now,” says an optimistic Dutt.
Known for his inherent swagger, six pack abs and dare devil stunts, Sanjay Dutt was the trendsetter in the 90’s, but lost his sheen after he got embroiled in various court cases and legal issues. While Dutt managed to strike back with his comic avatar in Munnabhai... and martyr act in Parineeta, he still hadn’t capitalised on his macho image. According to our sources Dutt is on the verge of signing some big films but that will have to wait till the star is back in action.
The actor is currently on certain medication and following a strict diet. Until then, his rigorous physical training will have to wait.
