Covid-19 and now Sanjay Dutt’s health setback put a question mark on his three big pending assignments: Kannada superstar Yash’s KGF2, Yash Raj films’ Shamshera and Prithviraj Chauhan.

But now with his illness, Sanjay Dutt may not be allowed to resume shooting for a while especially for strenuous sequences. “Waise bhi, we are not releasing our film before the middle of the next year. Kaun si abhi shooting khatm kar ke haumein theatre ki teraf bhagna hai (we are hardly running into movie theatres even if we complete our film),” says a member of the Shamshera team.

However it is at the moment exceedingly unclear when Dutt would be able to return to shooting. Those producers who choose to wait for his return have a long wait ahead .As for those who replace him they are looking long patches of expensive re-shooting.
