B-Town reacts to Dutt's jail sentence

21st March 2013

Ever since Sanjay Dutt's jail sentence has been announced, people are shocked!! Dutt has been charged under the Arms Act in the 1993 bomb blast case (read news) and the Supreme Court has announced a 5 year imprisonment for the actor.

Though Sanjay has served 18 months in jail, he will now have to serve the remaining 3 and a half years too.

Hearing the news, Bollywood left heart warming messages for the actor on their microblogging site which reads:

Arshad Warsi: "I am numb, I don't know what to say. Sanjay Dutt is not a criminal. This is too harsh a decision."

Karan Johar: "I am truly shattered to hear of Sanju's sentence...the nicest guy i have known just doesnt deserve this...my heart goes out to him...."

Bipasha Basu: "Saddenned n shocked with the news about Sanjay Dutt's Jail sentence.Strength to him n his family."

Priyanka Chopra: "My heart goes out to Sanju sir and his family..the nicest gentlest person..I pray for some respite for him through our judiciary.."

Riteish Deshmukh: "Having Worked with Sanjay Dutt in three films n 10yrs in d industry one thing I can say for sure is that he is the nicest n d most loved. One does respect the SC judgement- but in my personal capacity- my heart goes out to Sanju sir n his family."

Ashish Chowdhry: "There are bad guys,there are nice guys. Sanjay Dutt most definitely is the latter.By far.He's the kindest n nicest guy I know.Im really sad."

Celina Jaitly: "I am shocked to hear the verdict on Mr Dutt.. My heart goes out to the Dutt family ..We all love you Mr Dutt .."

Pritish Nandy: "Sad for Sanjay Dutt. He is paying for what was an act of folly. He is no traitor. He made a mistake. He is paying for it. Hugely. The real conspirators of the Bombay blasts must be brought back to India and tried. Sanjay's trial is just part of collateral damage. I will be very sad to see Sanjay Dutt go back to jail... where I used to meet him years ago. A second term will destroy the man. The strange dichotomies of life. A fine Supreme Court judgement on the Bombay blasts. But yes, Sanjay Dutt is my friend. I am sad for him. And I cant even meet Sanjay. I am in Kolkata to inaugurate Sanjay Bhattacharya's new art show. Tomorrow at Emami Chisel 6pm. I am amazed how ranters obfuscate issues. Sanjay Dutt goes to jail for possession of illegal arms. Not for the Mumbai blasts."

Mahesh Bhatt: "Man lives in hope and dies in hope! I am hopeful that the apex courts verdict will finally bring enduring peace in Sanjay Dutt's life. Heart Broken: Just heard that Sanjay Dutt has to go to jail for 5 years. I expected mercy! Alas it did not happen."

Aftab Shivdasani: "Sad to know the verdict on Sanjay Dutt, my heart goes out to him and his family..he was a fighter, is one and will always be one.."

Kunal Kohli: "the '93 blast case should NOT be made about Sanjay Dutt.The Real planners are sitting safely in Pakistan like Osama Bin Laden was."

Dabboo Ratnani: Shattered to Hear about Sanjay Dutt...Love Him...He is Like My Elder Brother & has a Pure Heart of Gold. God give Him Strength Sanjay Dutt. Praying For Our Sanju Baba."

While the whole of Bollywood still continues to pray for the actor and his family, Fridaymoviez too keeps them in their prayers.
