Yash says Sanjay Dutt was first choice for Adheera role in ‘KGF’

Yash has admitted that Sanjay Dutt was his only choice for the role of Adheera in the ‘KGF’ film series, even if the film’s primary language was Kannada.

He was cited in Pinkvilla stating, “Sanjay ji was the first choice for the role from the beginning. Even when we planned to make the film only in Kannada, he was choice for the character of Adheera. When Prashant narrated the character, he was hell bent on signing Sanjay. We had even approached him for the first part but he was occupied with some other commitment”.

Continuing, Yash expressed, “His addition will be a big boost to KGF franchise. He’s a wonderful actor, and we’re happy he’s on board.”

Dutt also commented on his character, saying, “In KGF, Adheera’s character is very powerful and if you’ve seen Avengers, you would have seen Thanos, so Adheera is similar to him”.
