He was forced into acting by his father (Sunil Dutt). He was like \u2018<em>Essential kyun<\/em> actor <em>banu<\/em>? <em>Mujhe<\/em> motorcycle <em>chalani hai\u2019<\/em>! He was having fun with life. He didn\u2019t know he would should work a lot as an actor. He was hardly 20 at the moment. I observed him and felt \u2018<em>Yeh bechara phas gaya\u2019<\/em>! But one way or the other, he managed to work with Dilip saab. Slowly, he realized that he needed to take this profession very seriously. That\u2019s how he began improving at this craft. I could see his progress with each passing film like <em>Sadak<\/em> (1991), <em>Saajan<\/em> (1993), etc. I used to be like \u2018<em>Yeh<\/em> <em>ab<\/em> serious actor <em>ban gaya hai\u2019<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Subhash Ghai continued, \u201cOnce I began working on <em>Khalnayak<\/em>, the news spread within the industry. Many stars met with me and expressed interest in doing the film. But I told them, \u2018I actually have an actor in mind already\u2019. I invited Sanju and narrated the story. He told me, \u2018Sir, I trust you. We&#8217;re doing this film\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sanjay Dutt raised laughs as he corrected, \u201cSubhas ji, you never narrated the story.
