Ever since the teaser of Sanju was launched last month, Ranbir Kapoor found himself being lauded for his seamless transformation into Sanjay Dutt on screen. Appreciation from critics and fans aside, the actor said his muse, Sanjay Dutt's verdict, will be the true litmus test for him. Speaking at the film's trailer launch yesterday, Kapoor said, "As a child, I had a poster of Sanjay sir in my cupboard. Today, I am stepping into his shoes and playing him on the big screen. I want Sanju sir to like this film because he is a man who I have tremendous respect for. I hope he feels that I have represented his life in an honest manner."
