Ranbir Kapoor will be playing Sanjay Dutt himself. It also stars Sonam Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Paresh Rawal and Manisha Koirala.<\/p>\n<p>Dia Mirza will be seen playing the role of Sanjay Dutt\u2019s wife Manyata in Rajkumar Hirani\u2019s yet untitled biopic. The Bollywood actor says going on a film set after a gap of two years was terrifying.<\/p>\n<p>But the film\u2019s cast made her feel at home, and she feels she managed to do \u201cokay\u201d. \u201cI had a great time filming (the biopic). It was terrifying as well because I actually got on to a film set after a gap of two years. Morning of my first day, I was terrified, but given the nature of the crew and the kind of people I was working with, and the sense of home that I felt, I did okay,\u201d Dia told IANS in an email interview.<\/p>\n<p>The actor, who unveiled a new collection titled H.Y. Ode to Nature for Yasmin Mather\u2019s fashion label in Kochi last week, was last seen on screen in Salaam Mumbai in 2016. Sanjay Dutt\u2019s biopic features Ranbir Kapoor as the protagonist. It also stars Sonam Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Karishma Tanna, Vicky Kaushal and Jim Sarbh.<\/p>\n<p>The film, written and directed by Hirani, will be opening up facets of Sanjay\u2019s personal as well as public life on the big screen. The actor is excited about the film, but refrains from sharing any information about the narrative of the project.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is with my favourite Indian film director. I have worked with him before (with Lage Raho Munna Bhai). I get to work with one of the finest artists of my generation, Ranbir Kapoor. I am really excited about the film and I can\u2019t wait for the audiences to watch it,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>So, how will the film bring Sanjay\u2019s life alive on the silver screen? \u201cI can\u2019t answer this question, because the film release is a good three months away and it\u2019s too early to comment or give any more details at this time,\u201d Dia said.<\/p>\n<p>After winning the Miss Asia Pacific 2000 title, Dia made her Bollywood debut in 2001 with the film Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein. Despite having a successful debut, she could not sustain the golden run in the Hindi film industry, and featured in projects like Deewaanapan, Tumko Na Bhool Paayenge, Dum, Parineeta and Kurbaan.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from acting, Dia has stepped into the filmmaking business as she co-owns a production house titled Born Free Entertainment with her husband Sahil Sangha. Her last production venture was Bobby Jasoos in 2014. The actor, who is also known for her philanthropic activities, is praised for her simple fashion sense too. Dia says she defines fashion as an expression of the time that we live in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think many fashion lines are created in essence to define a voice, an opinion, a conflict that individuals may be feeling in their own artistic minds. And it\u2019s also about the colours and the mood designers are feeling, which is inspired by society and what is happening around,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dia Mirza will be essaying the role of Sanjay Dutt&#8217;s wife in a yet untitled biopic on his life being directed by Rajkumar Hirani.
