Sanjay Dutt quits ‘Total Dhamaal’, signs ‘Malang’

Actor Sanjay Dutt has opted out of ‘Total Dhamaal’ and has signed a romantic thriller ‘Malang’, which will be directed by debutante director Aarambhh Singh.

Dutt decided to do the film after working with Omung Kumar in ‘Bhoomi’. Aarambhh, who was assisting Omung, narrated the story of ‘Malang’ after which Dutt decided to do the film.

“I have always believed in the passion of newcomers and fresh talent. I observed Aarambhh since he was assisting Omung during ‘Bhoomi’. When he narrated ‘Malang’ to me, I looked at Sandeep and said I am hooked”

“The layering of my character and the plot, the setting of Varanasi has made me excited about this project” Dutt said in a statement.

An elated Aarambhh said “It is a huge opportunity to direct Sanjay Sir and have him as the hero of my film. I am very grateful to him for letting me direct a great star like him. It’s a dream come true.

“I am also very thankful to Sandeep sir and Omung sir for showing immense faith in me and giving me this chance to showcase my talent,” Aarambhh said.

Meanwhile, Dutt has also decided to opt out of Indra Kumar’s ‘Total Dhamaal’ because the film is said to be an adult comedy with “crass humour”. The actor’s role in the first Dhamaal film was liked.

  • Not just he but everybody should quit Total Dhamal. They ruined a classic with Double Dhamal and I am sure they are gonna ruin it further with Total Bakwas.

  • Dhamaal 1 was awesome but 2nd film was a torturous affair so one can safely premise that 3rd film will be further crappier so good decision by him to leave that sinking ship/ franchise…!

  • Sanjay dutt is one of the most underrated actors in bollywood. .I hope bhoomi will be good… Waiting for munnabhai 3…and how many of you think that sanjay dutt biopic will be a hit?? If yes then press like and if not then press unlike..

  • Dhamaal is one of my favourite films on TV and Double Dhamaal was a huge insult to its prequel. It’s good that Total Dhamaal isn’t happening, sometimes it’s best to leave some classics untouched.

  • @Ceiling Joker , Duty biopic will fare well at box office dont worry about that you should worry about is How toilet cleaner in Bangkok Tepk will be disastrous at box office

  • I want to see total dhamaal done in the way the original was done. No adult jokes, no heroines in skimpy suits and bikinis, no item songs and just plain clean comedy with an interesting premise..
    Double dhamaal took away most of these things but it was still enjoyable.
    But turning total dhamaal into an adult comedy is simply a no-no!!!

  • Yesterday i saw mermaid (3200 cr)
    highest grosser of china, this proved that Chinese audience are brainless.. this was the most FAALTU AND. BAKWAAS MOVIE. these brainless audience like this kind of shitty and tutti movies..
    They are brainless enough to judge a good or bad movie ..
    Even CRAP kung fu yoga grossed huge money..
    Xxx xander cage which was a superflop in all country but collected 165usd in china alone ..many Hollywood crap flopped in usa but collected huge money in china

    So Gross Collection of dangal in china is not a big deal ,,,many crap movies are collecting in china..china is known for this.

    Now baahubali2 collection in india is certainly a game changer and certainly a yardstick..
    No movie in india has ever done a business of 1000 nett in india….so called mr. Perfectionist highest is 387cr..even Hollywood biggie gets tinny amount here…
    Whereas in china Hollywood movie dominates..
    Film business in India is by far more tougher than other country..
    For making a new yardstick of film business in India the movie has to be extra extra extraordinary…. Like mughleazam , sholay,hahk had done before…
    And now baahubali2 has done something unbelievable this time..
    Take a bow ss rajamouli’s baahubali2 “prabhas the megastar”

  • Sanju baba & Anil Kapoor are still relevant because they are opting for roles which suit their age and personality. Both of them have done a variety of roles from action to comedy to serious, etc. and kept the interest of the audience alive, Unlike Sunny Deol and Govinda who messed up their careers by doing repetitive kind of movies and lost audience’s interest because both of them are not so versatile… While Jackie Shroff is a chilled out actor who with his limited talent, still able to do a few good movies…
