There are last minute changes in the cast of the Sanjay Dutt biopic. The film just went on floors this Sunday and Rajkumar Hirani tweeted about the first shot taken. While Ranbir Kapoor plays Sanju baba in the film, Akshaye Khanna was initially roped in to play Sunil Dutt in the biopic

But now, Akshaye has opted out. And Paresh Rawal has replaced him in the film. Given that both Akshaye and Hirani wanted to team up together, this was a rude shock to everyone expecting the new director - actor pair. 

But Spotboye.com has now revealed the real reason behind Akshaye opting out of the film. "Even after trying prosthetic make-up, Akshaye and Hirani were not convinced and felt that Akshaye did not look like Sunil Dutt at all. Therefore, Akshaye who is very particular about the characters he plays and also about their sketch felt that it will be an injustice to the role if he plays it. Even Hirani was not convinced fully. That’s the reason Hirani and Akshaye mutually decided to not go ahead with their alliance," the report says.
