It's a newly-revamped power-packed Sanjay Dutt able to strike back on screen. He isn't only preparing to lose kilos to shoot his big action scene with Ramcharan Teja in Zanjeer, Sanjay Dutt has also decided to take charge of his image of the unique Action Hero.
And body-doubles or lighting tricks won't do.
For his next release Zilla Ghaziabad Dutt has shot some authentic bare-fisted action sequences.
Says our source from the film, `There are scenes where Dutt's cop's characters gets so livid he picks up his enemy bodily, somersaults them along with his hands and throws them to the bottom. After we were to shoot these scenes we were against Dutt Saab picking the blokes up and hurling them to the bottom. But he insisted on doing them with no body-double.
'Aajkal public sab samajhti hai. You can't fool them with a body-double, ' Dutt Saab told us, and proceeded to shoot the scenes himself with none props. He wanted his character to encounter as a full-action Jackson, the sort Dutt saab played in his early films like Rocky. `
adds Bachchan, `Kya hota hai, kabhi kabhi the fights look so real people think they're done by body doubles. We left no scope for any doubts within the audiences' minds. They're going to know it's Dutt Saab doing those scenes.
I can't let you know all of the methods we adopted to ensure ONE HUNDRED PC authenticity. But Dutt Saab went all-out to verify his fights look genuine. He'll make other action heroes look artificial when compared. `
