Sanjay Dutt in a film on father-daughter bonding

Sanjay Dutt has agreed to act in director Sanjay Gadhvi’s next film.

After making two out-and-out thrillers (Dhoom and Dhoom 2) with Yashraj Films, Sanjay Gadhvi has moved away from the banner. His next flick will be produced by Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Ltd.

From what is known, the movie will be a thriller set around a doting father and his young daughter. The film is said to be titled Kidnap. It will explore the relationship between a father and his daughter whose lives are changed after a kidnapping incident.

It is learnt that Sanjay Dutt gave his consent to Gadhvi after hearing the script just once. As in real life, Dutt loves his daughter Trishala very much, he was able to identify with his character in the film.

Gadhvi has approached newcomer Jiah Khan to play Dutt’s college-going daughter in the film. But the young actress is not keen to do the movie as she wants to see the audience response to her first movie Nishabd which is yet to hit the theatres.
