Sanjay Dutt to make comeback in Omung Kumar’s next

After much speculation of his comeback post his jail term, Sanjay Dutt has now confirmed his commitment to Omung Kumar’s film, ‘Bhoomi’, citing it was a film he could relate to. The film is a story based on a father’s relationship with his teenage daughter.

Speaking to Bombay Times, Dutt confirmed “I am really excited about ‘Bhoomi’ which will be directed by Omung Kumar. It took me long to decide my comeback vehicle. Finally, I chose this film because apart from an impressive and dramatic father-daughter story laced with realistic action, I’ll be collaborating with a great team. Omung has made good films. ‘Sarbjit’ and ‘Mary Kom’ were impressive. ‘Bhoomi’ largely dwells on the journeys of a teenager and her father. It’s a story I could relate to.”

Whilst the actor was offered many films for his comeback he felt he could relate to ‘Bhoomi’ and draw upon his own personal experience.

The film will start shooting in Agra in 2017 and Dutt is already starting to prepare. “I’ve started working out. I’m yet to discuss the look of my character with Omung, but I’m even game for a salt-and-pepper look if he wants one” he said.
