Sanjay Dutt claims his ‘can’t feel peace in India’ remark was a ‘scripted conversation’

Sanjay Dutt clarified that his comments on India during a recent satire show were part of a scripted conversation meant to evoke humor and lightheartedness, similar to the style seen in the Munna Bhai movies. He expressed that his intention was never to insult or disrespect anyone, but the remarks were misinterpreted. Dutt recounted the dialogue he delivered as India's Prime Minister, criticizing PM Modi's frequent foreign trips and suggesting a shift towards more domestic focus and connection.

He also playfully compared PM Modi to Gandhi and Trump, proposing the latter's photos be replaced with Gandhi's on various structures, echoing the satirical tone of the Munna Bhai films.
