The Badshah of Bulandshahr has its own notorious ways to strike on the criminals. His unorthodox method comprises of making criminals to shoot other criminals, without getting his hands dirty in the act.
Dutt, who has played the role of a cop often in films like Shootout At Lokhandwala, Kurukshetra and Mission Kashmir is all geared up to play the real life character in his next Zilla Ghaziabad.
The film’s producer Vinod Bachchan told Mumbai Mirror, “Sanjay Dutt is very excited about the character and his unorthodox ways of dealing with criminals. It is true that Thakur Pritam Singh would line up criminals and have them shot by criminals. We aren’t sparing any of the violent details.”
The most interesting fact which will give Sanjay Dutt a little too much to think about it is that during his tenure, Pritam Singh was not fond of him and rumours take us to this that the cop would go crazy when local boys would copy Dutt. Vinod Bachchan laughed, “That’s true. When Khal Nayak released in Bulandshahr, local boys grew their hair to shoulder-length like Sanjay. Pritam Singh had lined them up and forced them to have a haircut.”
However, the producer of the film admits that there are similarities between Dabangg and Zilla Ghaziabad. “But our film will go far beyond Dabangg in conveying the brutality of life. Chulbul Pandey was a fictional character, but Pritam Singh is real,” he added.
