Should things fall in place, Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt will soon star in yet another high-profile Kannada film. As per the latest reports, director Prem and the team have approached Dutt to play the role of the chief antagonist for the upcoming film starring Dhruva Sarja.

Although the reports do not confirm the news of the same, Sanjay Dutt is said to have liked the script and will come on board once other factors materialize. An official confirmation on this is awaited.

Having made his grand debut in Kannada cinema with the mega-blockbuster K.G.F: Chapter 2, Dutt has risen in prominence among the local audiences. He played the main antagonist Adheera in the Prashanth Neel film.

The untitled project will be helmed by director Prem in his maiden collaboration with the Martin actor Dhruva Sarja. Touted as a multilingual mega project which was officially launched back in April of this year, the makers are reportedly keen on casting well-known names from various film industries and Sanjay Dutt being the first on their radar.

The same reports reveal that the work on the film is currently in full swing and the team plans on releasing the title teaser sometime in October. Arjun Janya marks his third collaboration with Prem as the music composer (after The Villain and Ek Love Ya) and has already wrapped up song recording work - set in the 1960s and 70s era, the commercial entertainer is based on a true incident. Prem & co. Are currently in the midst of finalizing the rest of the cast ahead of the shooting schedule.

On the other hand, Dhruva Sarja’s reunion project with director A.P. Arjun, Martin, is on floors currently and the actor is expected to wrap up things at the earliest to get started on Prem’s film. Martin is a bona fide action entertainer which also stars Vaibhavi Shandilya and the film was earlier slated to release in theatres on September 30 but the same has now been pushed to a newer date.

Popular Telugu composer Mani Sharma has scored the music of Martin with Satya Hegde handling cinematography and Mahesh Reddy as the editor. Uday K Mehta is the film’s producer – Martin will release in five different languages including Kannada.
