Sanjay Dutt has backed out of Total Dhamaal

Sanjay Dutt, who recently wrapped up his much awaited comeback film Bhoomi, is on every director’s wish list. The actor has his dates locked till the end of 2018 with films like Torbaaz, Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster 3 and also another collaborative project with Ajay Devgn.

The actor has decided to gracefully pull out of Indra Kumar’s Dhamaal franchise. The actor played a crucial role in Dhamaal (2007) and Double Dhamaal (2011). The third installment, Total Dhamaal, was expected to roll out this year, but the fact that Dutt is unavailable has caused the film some delay.

However, a source close to the development stated that Dutt’s busy schedule and already locked dates is not the only reason why he won’t be doing the film.

“Besides the issue of unavailability of dates, Dutt was not okay with the film's adult comedy. He doesn’t want his children to see him in a film that has innuendo-laden jokes or crass humour,” the source stated.

Dutt’s co-star Riteish Deshmukh has backed out of the film as well.
