As Ram Gopal Verma announces a warts-and-all biopic on Sanjay Dutt, sister Namrata Dutt on why the family should not have to relive their disturbing episodes, time and again

Ram Gopal Varma and Sanjay Dutt
Hours after it was reported that Ram Gopal Varma has set into motion a biopic on Sanjay Dutt — one that critically appraises the actor and his run-ins with the law — sister Namrata Dutt says she doesn't understand the need to put the spotlight on episodes that Sanjay has put behind him.
Namrata tells mid-day, "Doesn't Varma need Sanjay's approval to make it? If Sanjay gives a go-ahead, we are nobody to say no to him." Despite it being a runaway hit, Rajkumar Hirani's Sanju has been accused of glossing over the actor's checkered past, with the emphasis laid on his strained relationship with father Sunil Dutt. In sharp contrast, Varma's biopic, tentatively titled Sanju: The Real Story, will focus on Sanjay's arrest for possessing an AK-56 rifle in connection with the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts.
