Sanjay Dutt on Trishala's aspiration to join Bollywood

Earlier, in an interview with Filmfare, Sanjay said he was upset about his daughter Trishala's aspiration to be a Bollywood actress. However, he was relieved to know that Trishala later gave up on her acting ambitions. 

"She’s such an intelligent girl, who’s done Forensic Science. So I could never understand why she wanted to give it all up and become an actress. Aur iss industry mein actor banne ke liye (to be in this industry) you need to know the language," he said. According to Dutt, language would've been the biggest barrier for his daughter in the Hindi film industry. 

Meanwhile, on the work front, Sanjay was recently seen in Ghudchadi with Raveena Tandon, Khushalii Kumar, and Parth Samthaan. The film opened to mixed feedback upon its OTT premiere on JioCinema.
