'I am worried about their safety': Sanjay Dutt on wife Maanayata, kids being stuck in Dubai amid coronavirus lockdown

Sanjay Dutt is currently in Mumbai owing to the nationwide lockdown amid the coronavirus outbreak. Now, the actor has revealed that his wife Maanayata and 9-year-old twins Shahraan and Iqra had flown to Dubai before a lockdown was imposed in India and could not return in time. 

In a recent interview, Sanjay said that he facetime chats with his kids every day but he is still worried about their safety. Sanjay said, "In the past, I have spent periods of my life in a lockdown. Back then and even now, the one thought that stays with me is the way I miss my family. For me, they are everything. Thanks to technology, I can see and talk to them multiple times in a day, and yet, I miss them terribly. These times teach you about the fragility of life, and the value of moments spent with your loved ones. We should count our blessings, and never take them for granted."

He further added, "Although I have them virtually with me, there is a difference. As a father and husband, I am worried about their safety, even though I know that they are fine." Sanjay further added that he is utilising his time by prepping for his upcoming films which include working out and practising his dialogues. 

"I keep my life simple by focusing on my family and work. I love the multiple chats I have with my children. My kids keep me amused with their non-stop chatter and masti, even on video calls," Sanjay said. On the work front, Sanjay will next be seen in Ajay Devgn-starrer Bhuj: The Pride Of India. It also features Sonakshi Sinha, Ammy Virk, and Pranitha Subhash. He will also be seen in Torbaaz which has been entirely shot abroad. He plays a doctor in the film which has Rahul Dev in the role of the antagonist.
