In 1990 Dutt acted in many hit films such as ''Tejaa'', ''katarnaak'', ''Zahreelay'', ''Jeene Do'', and ''Thanedaar'' which was that years fourth highest grossing Hindi film. However the year's much anticipated release ''Kroadh'' co starring Sunny deol was declared a box office flop. 1991 was an eventful year for Dutt. He started the year with a a string of box office hits with ''[[Khoon Ka Karz]],'' ''Quarbani RAng layegi'', ''Fateh'' and ''Do Matwala''. His much anticipated release that year once again co starring Sunny Deol, ''Yodha'' was declared a box office flop despite drawing a huge initial. He bounced back and finished the year with two back to back romantic blockbusters starring in ,''[[Saajan]]'', for which he was nominated for the [[Filmfare Best Actor Award]] and Mahesh Bhatts, ''Sadak'' which boasted of a soundtrack regarded to be "amongst bollywood's best". 1992 saw Dutt continue his fine box office form as all his films that year ''Yalgaar'', ''Adharm'', ''Saphira'', ''Sahebzaade'' and ''Jeena Marna tera sang'' became box office hits. He started the year 1993 starring in the multi-starer that again featured Sunny Deol alongside him, ''kshatriya'', despite the huge star cast and budget the movie was declared a flop like the previous two movies that featured both Dutt and Sunny Deol together. He then appeared in the box office hits ''Sahibaan'' and ''Gumrah'' as-well as the blockbuster ''[[Khal Nayak]]'' for which he earned his second [[Filmfare Best Actor Award]] nomination the film also went on to break many box office records.

Due to imprisonment, the years 1994-1997 saw Dutt only appear in one super-hit film ''Aatish'' which was amongst the list of the highest grossing Hindi films of 1994.A few delayed releases between the years 1994-97 did make there way to Indian cinema halls, the majority of which featured character artists standing in and doubling and dubbing for Dutt, in order complete the films on producers requests. These movies included, ''Zamane se kya darna'', ''Amanat'' and ''Andholan'' which all achieved moderate success, while others sank without a trace. In late 1997 he faced the camera for the first time in four years as he starred in director Ram Gopal Verma's ''Daud'', although the movie received a phenomenal opening at the Indian box office and is regarded as a cult film for its humour, as-well as the picturesqueness of its steamy dance numbers, it quickly ran out of steam at the box office and was labeled as a flop by critics. 1998 saw him appear in a supporting role in the box office hit ''Dushman'' but it was 1999 that finally established Dutt as a major box office draw once again.

Sanjay Dutt (Hindi: संजय दत्त; Template:Lang-pa) (born 29 July 1959) is a prominent Indian Hindi film actor, producer and politician. Dutt, son of Hindi film actors [Sunil Dutt and Nargis Dutt, made his acting debut in 1981, he has since starred amongst some of the most popular Hindi language films of the past three decades which include Naam, Sadak, Saajan, Khalnayak, Vaastav, Mission Kashmir, Kaante, Munnabhai Mbbs and Lage raho Munnabhai. Although Dutt has enjoyed major success in movie genres ranging from Romance to Comedy, it has been whilst playing roles of gangsters, goons, anti-heroes and police inspectors in films representing the drama and action genre, that has won Dutt unprecedented adulation, with fans and the Indian media alike referring to him as the "Deadly Dutt," for his larger than life portrayals of such characters.

Personal life

Dutt was born on 29 July 1959 to Bollywood megastars Sunil Dutt and Nargis. He was educated at the Lawrence School Sanawar.[citation needed] Dutt married actress Richa Sharma in 1987.[3] Sharma died of brain tumour on 10 December 1996.[3] The couple have a daughter, Trishala, born in 1987, who lives in the United States with her grandparents, following a custody battle with Dutt after the death of his wife.[4] Dutt's second marriage was to model Rhea Pillai in 1998.[5] They divorced in 2005. Dutt married Manyata (also known as Dilnawaz Sheikh)[6] in 2008 at a private ceremony in Goa, after two years of dating.[7] On 21 October 2010, he became a father to twins, a boy named Shahraan and a girl named Iqra.[8] Dutt is also well known for having drug problems, in the early stages of his career, for which he underwent treatment at drug rehab center in Texas, USA. This was after he had been arrested with 357 grams of cocaine in February 1982 and was sentenced to 17 months imprisonment. He was released in July of that year after only 5 months in prison and ordered to serve the rest of his sentence on police bail. He was granted permission to leave India whilst on bail, in order to receive treatment in Texas. He returned to India after three years, and established himself as one of the prominent young faces of Hindi cinema. He was notoriously known for his "brat like" behavior and his non-stop party lifestyle as well as his several altercations with the law. 1993 saw Dutt become a suspect and imprisoned under the tada act (see illegal possession of arms below) he was in and out of the infamous Arthur road jail during the years 1993-97 before he was finally granted bail. In late 2006 he was sentenced to 6 years imprisonment charged under the arms act although charges of tada where dropped against him. During 2006-2007 he spent a total of 7 months in at Pune prison on two different occasions before finally being granted bail. He has also been heavily accused of having relationships with members of the Indian underworld an accusation that saw charges filed against him in 2002, following the release of tape recordings featuring phone conversations with "don Shotaa Shakeel." He had the charges dropped when he claimed the voice in the recording was not him. 2009 saw Dutt enter politics and although he was not allowed to contest elections due to the charges of TADA against him (see illegal possession of arms), he was instead appointed General Secretary of the Samajwadi party. In December 2010 he left his post due to the many controversies he became embroiled in, He left the post stating politics isn't for him, as he thinks from his heart as well as being too outspoken for such a role. One of these remarks saw him, during a speech on live TV, offering Mayawati, a leader of an opposing party, a jaadu ki jhappi and pappi (a magical hug and kiss, a now infamous dialogue from his Munnabhai Mbbs movie) as he felt she was in need of it.

Film career

As a child actor, Dutt appeared in the 1972 film Reshma Aur Shera, which starred his father. In this film, he appears briefly as a qawali singer. Dutt made his Bollywood movie debut with Rocky in 1981 his mother passed away three days before the films premier, the movie became the eighth highest grossing film of that year.

After the release of Vidhaata he had stopped signing films due to personnel reasons although a few films of Dutt released between 1983-84 these where movies he had completed in 1982 out of which only Zameen Aasmaan was declared a hit at the box office. He famously lost the lead role in the 1983 classic film Hero. In 1985 he shot for his first film in three years with Jaan ki baazi which was declared a super-hit at the box office.

Naam (1986) is widely regarded as Dutt's breakthrough film many critics label it "his first sober film" although he had tasted success with super-hits like Vidhaata and jaan ki baazi, it was his performance In director Mahesh Bhatt's Naam that established Dutt as one of India's most talented actors. The film went on to be regarded as a landmark film for Dutt's sensitive portrayal of the films lead character Vicky Kapoor, as-well as its music, especially the Pankaj Udhas song, chitti aaye hai. He also received major critical acclaim for his performances in Mahesh Bhatt's Kabzaa and JP Dutta's 1989 film Hathyar. By the end of the decade Dutt had firmly established himself as one of the major players of Indian cinema.

In 1990 Dutt acted in many hit films such as Tejaa, katarnaak, Zahreelay, Jeene Do, and Thanedaar which was that years fourth highest grossing Hindi film. However the year's much anticipated release Kroadh co starring Sunny deol was declared a box office flop. 1991 was an eventful year for Dutt. He started the year with a a string of box office hits with Khoon Ka Karz, Quarbani RAng layegi, Fateh and Do Matwala. His much anticipated release that year once again co starring Sunny Deol, Yodha was declared a box office flop despite drawing a huge initial. He bounced back and finished the year with two back to back romantic blockbusters starring in ,Saajan, for which he was nominated for the Filmfare Best Actor Award and Mahesh Bhatts, Sadak which boasted of a soundtrack regarded to be "amongst bollywood's best". 1992 saw Dutt continue his fine box office form as all his films that year Yalgaar, Adharm, Saphira, Sahebzaade and Jeena Marna tera sang became box office hits. He started the year 1993 starring in the multi-starer that again featured Sunny Deol alongside him, kshatriya, despite the huge star cast and budget the movie was declared a flop like the previous two movies that featured both Dutt and Sunny Deol together. He then appeared in the box office hits Sahibaan and Gumrah as-well as the blockbuster Khal Nayak for which he earned his second Filmfare Best Actor Award nomination the film also went on to break many box office records. Three weeks before the release of Khal-Nayak he hit an all-time low personally as he was taken into police custody becoming a suspect in the infamous Tada case (see below). Due to imprisonment, the years 1994-1997 saw Dutt only appear in one super-hit film Aatish which was amongst the list of the highest grossing Hindi films of 1994.A few delayed releases between the years 1994-97 did make there way to Indian cinema halls, the majority of which featured character artists standing in and doubling and dubbing for Dutt, in order complete the films on producers requests. These movies included, Zamane se kya darna, Amanat and Andholan which all achieved moderate success, while others sank without a trace. In late 1997 he faced the camera for the first time in four years as he starred in director Ram Gopal Verma's Daud, although the movie received a phenomenal opening at the Indian box office and is regarded as a cult film for its humour, as-well as the picturesqueness of its steamy dance numbers, it quickly ran out of steam at the box office and was labeled as a flop by critics. 1998 saw him appear in a supporting role in the box office hit Dushman but it was 1999 that finally established Dutt as a major box office draw once again. He started the year off by starring in director Mahesh Bhatt's last film to date Kartoos and despite the hype and bumper box office opening it was finally classed as being a moderate success. However khoobsurat, Haseena Maan Jayegi, Daag the fire along with the huge critical and commercial success Vaastav: The Reality, for which he finally won his first [[Filmfare Best Actor Award] finally brought Dutt back into "the elite group" of Indian actors.

In the 2000s Dutt acted in many box office hits such as Mission Kashmir, Kurukshetra, Pitaah, Jodi No.1, Kaante, Munna Bhai M.B.B.S, Musafir, Plan, Dus, Parineeta, Lage Raho Munna Bhai, Shootout at Lokhandwala, Dhamaal, , All The Best: Fun Begins, Double Dhamaal and Agneepath. During the 2000's Dutt has managed to maintain a strong hold over Indian movie audiences but he hasn't been able to emulate the consistent box office success he enjoyed from the mid 80's to early-mid 90's. He was seen in box office flops Hathyar (2002) and Rudrakhsh (2004) and was seen in an increasingly large amount of cameos and guest roles as-well as seen staring in much over-hyped, multi starers such as Ek aur Ek Gyaarah, Hum kissise Kum Nahin (2002), Kidnap (2008), Luck, and Blue (2009) all of which, that at best, can be termed as average box office earners. He did however still manage to retain his position amongst the "elite group of Indian Superstars" by appearing in huge critical and commercially successful blockbuster's such as Mission Kashmir, Kaante, Munnabhai Mbbs, Lage raho Munnabhai and Agneepath. During this time he got several more nominations and awards for his performances in films Mission Kashmir, Kurukshetra, Pitaah, Kaante, Shootout at Lockhandwala and the Munnabhai series of films. He also recieved many nominations and awards from MTV india for his performances in 2004 film Musafir where he was seen in a villain role as-well as for his performances in films Dus and shabd (2005). Dutt also received awards and nominations under the "best actor in a comedy role" at a number of award functions for his performances in films Dhamaal(2007) and All The Best(2009). 2007 also saw him receive an award from the prime minister of India Manmohan Singh, for his portrayal of his now cult character Munna bhai,in the blockbuster films Munna bhai mbbs and Lage raho Munna bhai.His latest release Agneepath opened to rave reviews and record breaking collections on the 26th of January 2012 with critics describing Dutt's performance as villain Kaancha, as the films highlight.

In January 2008, India's leading film institute, Filmfare listed 14 movies featuring Dutt in its top 100 grossing movies of all time list in accordance with inflation. These included Lage raho munnabhai (6), khalnayak (8), Saajan (11), Vidhaata (14), Sadak (17), Naam (23), Munnabhai Mbbs (27), Vaastav (34), Kaante (52),Rocky (58) Mission Kashmir (61), Aatish (77), Thanedaar (84) and Haseena maan jayegi (97) In december 1999 Filmfare also named Dutt as the ninth most influential film personality of the century. the list also included his mother Nargis as the third most influential film personality of the century along with his father Sunil Dutt in seventh place. The list was made up from a total of over three million public votes. He is fondly referred to as Sanju baba (the loved one)

Due to terrorist interactions, and supposed weapons possession, on 19 April 1993, Sanjay was arrested under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities Act (TADA).[9] He spent 16 months in jail as a prisoner until he was granted bail in October 1995 by the Supreme Court of India. He was later re-arrested in December 1995 and re-released in April 1997 once again on police bail terms. In 2006 the case opened for sentencing for all accused (see below) the period between 2006-2007 saw Dutt spend a total of 7 months in Arthur Road Prison and Pune prison on three different occasions for arms offences, although in 2006 Dutt was finally acquitted of any TADA related offenses but was charged under the illegal possession of arms act.

In November 1993, a 90,000-page long primary chargesheet was filed against the 189 accused in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts case including Sanjay.[10]

In March 2006, when framing muthar charges against extradited Abu Salem and co-accused Riyaz Siddiqui in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts case, the prosecution said that Salem delivered 9 AK-56 rifles and some hand grenades to Dutt at his Bandra house in the second week of January 1993.[11]

On 13 February 2007, the special branch of Mumbai police arrested Abdul Qayyum Abdul Karim Shaikh, a close aide of Dawood Ibrahim and wanted by Mumbai Police Special Task Force for his role in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts from Mumbai.[12] Qayuum had been named by Sanjay Dutt in his confessional statement. Sanjay had said that he met Qayuum in Dubai in September 1992 and bought a pistol from him. According to CBI, the pistol was sold to Sanjay at the instance of Dawood's brother Anees Ibrahim.[13]

On 31 July 2007, Dutt was sentenced to six years rigorous imprisonment for illegally possessing weapons.[14] At the same time, Dutt was also "cleared of terrorism conspiracy charges in the blasts" related to the 1993 bombings.[14] According to The Guardian, "The actor claimed he feared for his life after the notorious "Black Friday" bombings, which were allegedly staged by Mumbai's Muslim-dominated mafia in retaliation for deadly Hindu-Muslim clashes a few months earlier. But the judge, Pramod Kode, rejected this defence and also refused bail."[14] Dutt was immediately taken into custody and sent to Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail. As the sentence was pronounced, Dutt was "visibly shocked and was seen shivering and holding back tears".[9]

On 2 August 2007, Sanjay Dutt was moved from Arthur Road jail in Mumbai to the Yeravada Jail in Pune.[15] On 7 August 2007, Dutt appealed the sentence.[16] Later, on 20 August 2007, the Supreme Court of India granted Dutt interim bail. He was released after Yeravada Jail authorities received a copy of the court's bail order. The bail was valid until the time the special TADA court, which sentenced Dutt on 31 July, provides a copy of its judgment to him.[17] Dutt was released from jail on 23 August.[18] On 22 October 2007 Dutt was back in jail but again applied for bail. On 27 November 2007, Dutt was granted bail by the Supreme Court.[19] He currently has an appeal for an acquittal pending.[20] In January 2009, Dutt announced that he would contest the 2009 Lok Sabha elections on the Samajwadi Party ticket.[21] However, he withdrew his candidacy in March 2009 after the Supreme Court refused to suspend his conviction.[22]
