Ever since the trailer released, Sanju has been creating quite a buzz, especially because of Ranbir Kapoor's look as Sanjay Dutt.

But the movie comes with multiple plotholes, primarily because it tries to encompass a grey life in a black and white frame.

The one thing that the movie did get right though was its casting, especially the star of the show, Ranbir Kapoor.

From nailing Sanjay Dutt's iconic walk to adopting his speech patterns, Ranbir shines in his portrayal of Sanjay Dutt - the actor, the son, and the friend.

Ranbir manages to keep the audience's interest alive in a way few actors can. He most definitely is not a caricature.

Ranbir Kapoor's excellence is unparalleled, but the artists behind the star deserve just as much admiration. Primarily, prosthetic artist Dr. Murkey and hair stylist Aalim Hakim.

These artists thus had to recreate the different looks that Sanjay Dutt donned in his 37-year long career while transforming a 35-year-old actor into a 58-year-old actor.
