Bejoy Nambiar's yet to be titled headlining Shahid Kapoor has got Sanjay Dutt on board in a villainous role.
"Bejoy is known to make edgy films and the lead antagonist was one of the most vital characters in the film. After much debate, Bejoy thought of Sanjay Dutt for the role and met him a fortnight back," an insider told Mid-Day.
Sanjay Dutt, reportedly loved his part and gave his instant nod.
The role has earned him a paycheck of Rs10 crore, says the insider.
Nambiar is guarded about the genre of the film. He is currently busy filming for David featuring Tabu, South star Vikram and Neil Nitin Mukesh and will start this film only after he completes that.
Sanjay and Shahid earlier appeared together in Mahesh Manjrekar's Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi! (2005) in which Sanjay plays a kind-hearted Yamraaj.
Sanjay is currently filming for Soham Shah's gangster flick Sher in Rajasthan, with Vivek Oberoi as the other lead.
Shahid will soon get busy with Maneesh Sharma's next.
With two strong actors like Sanjay and Shahid, the movie should prove to be HOT.
