Sanjay Dutt concerned about Big B

Many years ago, when Amitabh Bachchan was badly hurt on the sets of Cooliee, people across the nation prayed for him. So, recently when he was hospitalised due to the same problem, unpleasant memories of his Cooliee days became fresh. And this time too people across the world rather is praying for his well being. And that includes Bollywood’s macho actor Sanjay Dutt. Sanju baba who is in London, was shocked to hear about Amitabh Bachchan's hospitalisation, he has been calling up Abhishek Bachchan every hour to check on his father's health.


Dutt also called up his friends Bunty Walia and Dharam Oberoi to check if all was well and offered to fly back to Mumbai immediately. Dutt is waiting for Manyata to join him in London from where the couple plans to travel to New Zealand to scout for locations for their home-production.

When contacted, Dharam Oberoi (CEO, Sanjay Dutt Productions) confirmed Sanjay's frequent calls to Abhishek. "Yes, Baba has been calling up Abhishek every hour. Baba and Bachchan saab go back a long way. He is in awe of Bachchan saab and the latter too loves him very much."

Meanwhile, Sanjay has zeroed on Amitabh to play a pivotal role in his first home production. He had even called up Amitabh Bachchan's secretary, Rosie and sought an appointment with Big B but Bachchan was out on The Unforgettable tour. Oberoi confirmed, "That's right. Baba wants Bachchan saab in the film. It's a film on sports, titled India. It will go on the floors next year."

Amitabh was admitted to Lilavati hospital on Saturday morning (on his 66th birthday) when he complained of acute abdominal pain.
