Okay so this one just a theory. Sanjay Dutt has been a part of all Raju Hirani films. Sanjay Dutt played the lead in the first two Munna Bhai films. He had a cameo in PK, and Sanju was based on Sanjay Dutt himself. He had a cameo in a song at the end.
So based on that, just a guess, there may be a slight chance that Sanjay Dutt may be a part of Dunki as well.
Co-stars – Shah Rukh Khan, Boman Irani, Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, Satish Shah, Dharmendra
