After working in Bollywood for more than three decades, superstar Sanjay Dutt decided to explore other moviemaking industries in India and gave his nod to star in the second instalment of the immensely successful Kannada film KGF (2018).

Yes, rumours are rife that the Munna Bhai MBBS (2003) actor could be signing his second South Indian film after KGF: Chapter 2 which is poised for its theatrical release in April 2020. It has been said Dutt may be collaborating with Balakrishna for his next project titled Boyapati Srinu.

According to reports doing the rounds, Dutt will be playing the role of an antagonist in the film. The makers are, however, yet to confirm the development. If all goes well, Boyapati Srinu will be formally launched towards the end of November and hit the shooting floors by December.
