Sanjay Dutt to finish dubbing for Sadak 2 before heading abroad for treatment

On August 11, Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt, who was admitted to Lilavati Hospital last weekend after he complained of breathing problems and chest discomfort, shared that he is taking a break for medical treatment.

Though neither the actor nor his family has confirmed anything officially, several industry insiders reveal that the 61-year-old actor has been diagnosed with lung cancer and that will be flying to the US for his treatment.


Now, we hear that before heading abroad for his treatment, Dutt will finish the last leg of dubbing for his forthcoming film Sadak 2. Sharing some details, a source close to the actor and the film informs a newswire, “Sanjay will complete the last leg of dubbing for his film Sadak 2 by next week, before going on a medical break. He is overwhelmed with the outpouring of love coming his way ever since the news of his illness came out. This support is motivating him, even more, to give his fans his best through his work.”

Sadak 2, as the title suggests itself, is a sequel to the 1991 musical hit Sadak, starring Sanjay Dutt and Pooja Bhatt in lead roles. The sequel stars Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur alongside the original cast of its predecessor. Sadak 2 marks the directorial comeback of veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt after a big gap of two decades.

The trailer of Sadak 2, which dropped on Wednesday, has been facing backlash on social media platforms. It has amassed more than 9 million dislikes on YouTube, which is unprecedented for any Bollywood film.

The source adds that so much negativity around the film pains Dutt like anything. “He is very saddened by the negativity that the trailer of the film has received as Sadak holds a special place in his heart. It is a heartfelt emotion for him, not just a movie. He is hoping that people will rise above the trolling and hate, and look at the movie for its story and performances.”

Sadak 2 is scheduled to premiere on August 28 on Disney+ Hotstar.

Kannada priest makes India’s first AI film without actors or crew on £9,500 budget

In a quiet village near Bengaluru, a temple priest has done something no one expected. He made a full-length Kannada film without hiring a single actor, technician or musician. Narasimha Murthy, who serves at the Hanumantharai Temple in Siddehalli, created Love You, a 95-minute film entirely powered by Artificial Intelligence.

Murthy didn’t come from a film background, nor did he have access to a big team. Instead, he joined hands with Nuthan, a graphic designer who taught himself how to use AI tools. Together, the two-man team used around 30 different AI applications to design the cast, create visuals, generate drone-like shots, compose music and even script dialogues. The film cost £9,500 (₹10 lakh) to make, most of which went into buying software licences, and took just six months to complete.
