Sanjay Dutt may be the bad boy of Bollywood but he is also a very popular actor. He is 47 years old but he can compete with an actor of 25 in anything. He has millions of fans in India and around the world. Today, many of his fans are praying for him. Well, I guess that his producers and directors are praying more for him than the fans. So, much is at stake now!

IBN Live reported:

Though over the past six months Dutt has tried his best to complete his unfinished Bollywood projects, around 50 crore is at stake in the industry, say reports.

If sentenced, it could well spell doom for many pending projects including his films Dhamaal, Mr Fraud, Kidnap and Alibaug.

And those who are wondering about his next Munnabhai flick, the third installment of the series, Munnabhai Chale Amreika, has been put off until next year.

The actor is currently shooting for Abbas Mustan’s Mr Fraud, Sanjay Guptas Alibaug and Sanjay Gadhvi’s Kidnap.

While filmmaker Inder Kumar’s Dhamaal is ready for release, in which Dutt stars with funnyman Arshad Warsi, the promos are still not on air.

So, you can see that the producers of these movies would have to do some big adjustments if Sanjay Dutt has to go to jail and stay there for 6 years. 2007 is not becoming a good year for Bollywood movies. In fact, 2007 is catching the media attention for the personal matters of the Bollywood stars rather than the huge success of the movies in the box office.
